pilot: [16] Pilot comes ultimately from a Greek word for ‘oar’, pēdón, which went back to the same Indo-European base as produced English foot. Its plural, pēdá, was used for ‘rudder’, and from this was derived medieval Greek *pēdótēs ‘rudder, helmsman’. This in turn was borrowed into medieval Latin as pedota, which was later altered to pilotus – whence, via French, English pilot.

For most of its career in English, of course, the word has been used in connection with the steering of ships, but in the middle of the 19th century it began to be applied to the steering of balloons, and the first record of its modern use for ‘flier of an aeroplane’ comes from 1907.
