Abstract
The aviation-shipping analogy cannot be used as an argument for a decrease in the need for maritime pilotage. The increasing complexity and upsizing of modern ships, in combination with a vast variety in ship types, economic maximisation, crewing and technical standards, lead to marginal ship operations that require specialist knowledge and skill. On the other hand, modern commercial aircraft have very standardised equipment and operating procedures and they approach and land at airports which also use standard radio-navigation aids and procedures.
