I hope your bull cwp is flashing, tqnct4cwp. The pilot is very definitely the back seater in the WAH64, the "gunner" rides up front. Perhaps as he sees more he could navigate as well (nav for short?).

Be under no illusion the pilot's job is to drive the weapon carrier to the release point (that goes globally), he doesn't necessarily have to be the aimer or have tactical command.

PS Before you start I am a pilot, only I'm a realistic one.
