1) Copilot (Microsoft chatbot):
"The term “chief pilot” is not typically used to refer to the main pilot of a specific flight. Instead, it refers to a managerial position within an airline or aviation organization. The chief pilot is responsible for overseeing the pilots, ensuring compliance with regulations, and managing pilot training and operations.

"For a specific flight, the main pilot is usually referred to as the captain or pilot-in-command (PIC), while the second pilot is called the first officer or copilot. The captain has overall responsibility for the flight, while the first officer assists and can take over if necessary."

2) The pilot in command (PIC)) of an aircraft is the person aboard an aircraft who is ultimately responsible for its operation and safety during flight. This would be the captain in a typical two- or three-pilot flight crew, or "pilot" if there is only one certificated and qualified pilot at the controls of an aircraft.
