General Description:

The pilot roster window is for creating and managing your pilots. Keep in mind if you setup a new pilot first adjust the pilot type/subtype and gender, cause both selections are locked after you saved and loaded your pilot again.


Printing:

If you hit the print icon while the pilot window is open, your pilot is printed in separate page. Not only his stats, like in the aircraft printout, but also his feats, appearance, etc.


Pilot Type/Subtype:

You may chooes between Pilot, Crew and NPC. This changes the possible choices for your subtype. If you choose Pilot, the subtype can be Ace, Hero, Wingman, Zeppelin Captain or Custom.
Hero or Wingman are the two possible pilots you know from the official rules. The crew subtype was introduced with update 1.1.0, to add the many different crew types from Zeppelin & Bombers.
Your choices affect the starting EPs and the validation rules for this pilot.
If you choose custom Pilot or Zeppelin Captain you can adjust the starting EP in the "Start EP" Textfield.

Can Level and Linked-To:

Both inputs are in mosted cases fixed, but for Gunners and Co-Pilots there are 2 different types. E.g. The Nose Gunner of a Bomber can level up but all other Gunners are linked to the Nose Gunner.
If "Can Level" is selected the "Linked-To" pulldown is inactive. But the The Pilot can adjust its stats and it changes cost EP.
If "Can Level" is not selected the "Linked-To" pulldown becomes active and you can selected a Pilot who's stats are used and reduced by (-1).


Use For Aircrafts/Zepplins:

These checkboxes are just for filtering the pilot files if you want to assign them on an aircraft or zeppelin. E.g. in the aircraft window the pilot pulldown is only filled with pilot files where the "use for Aircrafts" flag is checked.
