A school might launch a pilot breakfast program for a few students before introducing it to the whole school. The pilot episode of a TV show is like a test program produced to determine viewer interest before making a whole season.

PILOT
Pilot и пилот совпадают только в значении ‘летчик’: arctic pilot. Наряду с этим pilot передает ряд значений, отсутствующих у существительного пилот: 1) ‘лоцман’: to sail with a pilot; 2) ‘опытный проводник’ (главным образом на охоте): to hunt with a pilot.

пилот-сигнал
ПС
1. Немодулированный сигнал, излучаемый на несущей частоте и обычно используемый для синхронизации. Для контроля условий распространения радиоволн, как правило, применяется несколько ПС, излучаемых на одной или разных несущих частотах.
2. В системах с частотным уплотнением контрольный тональный сигнал с эталонным уровнем, вводимый в групповой сигнал с целью контроля работоспособности или автоматической регулировки усиления. В каждой группе (вторичной, третичной и т.д.) используется индивидуальный ПС, размещенный в рабочей полосе или в защитных промежутках между канальными группами. Если уровень ПС отличается от эталонного (обычно на 4 дБ ниже или выше), то выдается сигнал аварии.
3. В системах с расширенным спектром — кодовая последовательность, передаваемая вместе с другими полезными сигналами в общей полосе частот. Излучение ПС осуществляется непрерывно и в широковещательном режиме, чтобы его могли принять все мобильные станции, расположенные в зоне обслуживания данной БС. С помощью пилот-сигнала обеспечивается кадровая синхронизация и когерентное восстановление несущей. Пилот-сигнал может также содержать дополнительную информацию, необходимую для ускоренного поиска станции.

Piloting a Space Shuttle.
A pilot is a person that drives a vehicle (form of transportation) such as an airplane, spacecraft, or boat. All types of pilots must pass a number of tests and obtain a license before they can operate the vehicle. The pilot of a flying machine is usually in charge for the whole trip. A ship pilot usually only guides the ship through an especially difficult place such as a harbor.
This short article about transport can be made longer. You can help Wikipedia by adding to it.

10 QUOTES WITH «PILOT»
Famous quotes and sentences with the word pilot.
I had five years in the business in Canada, and then I came down to the States in February of 2010. I had a good pilot season. I started getting guest star work. I started to get bigger stuff.
I started to book good television jobs in 2010. I started to get really close to exceptional jobs in 2011, and then I got ‘Arrow’ in 2012. I know how lucky I am because just getting the lead in a pilot doesn’t guarantee that that pilot is going to turn into something great.
After ‘Brothers & Sisters’ ended, I was back to the old game as an actor. Doing pilot season, choosing a script and figuring out what I wanted to do.
It was understood that when I left to do the pilot that I wasn’t coming back.
After Hurricane Katrina, over New Orleans, my helicopter crashed and the pilot and I were only saved because we fell on the roof of a flooded house that absorbed the shock. When the helicopter was spiraling downward out of control, I didn’t expect to survive at all.
I get inspired when I look at Tom Lennon, who did ‘Reno 911!’ for six seasons while writing huge movies and directing and also doing other pilots; he did that FX pilot, the ‘Star Trek’ thing.
Like the Spitfire it was immensely strong: a pilot had no need to fear the danger of pulling the wings off, no matter how desperate the situation became.
I was going to move to New York after college and had no interest in pilot season. I’d seen what happened on TV shows because of my dad, and I didn’t want to open myself up to that. But ‘Pretty Little Liars’ had a very early audition, and my agents encouraged me to go even though I didn’t think it would be my thing.
I love working in television, and I’ve been thrilled to be a part of so many wonderful shows. I worked with Lady Gaga on ‘Gossip Girl,’ and the brilliant Felicity Huffman on ‘Desperate Housewives,’ but I think my favorite TV job so far was the pilot I shot for the CW Network this year called ‘Joey Dakota.’
I was in the pilot for Spinal Tap before it was a movie.
