RN Hovercraft 'drivers'....pilots or helmsman?

Chaps,

Recent late night discussion here about the past fleet of RN hovercraft had me of the opinion that the "drivers" may have been winged due to the fact that the vessel did IMO "fly", others with more salt in their blood scoffed at this comment and insisted that they were in fact Helmsman.

Bottels of red were promised and the dawn of a new day see's me here seeking wisdom.

With sobriety comes clarity and i think i may be in error, anyboby with some knowledge of the issue willling to post a reply and educate me in the errors of my thinking would be apreaciated.

Regards
