A Navy Plane Captain is responsible for the daily maintenance, inspection, and servicing of naval aircraft to ensure they are mission-ready. They act as the primary enlisted personnel overseeing the aircraft on the ground, conducting pre-flight and post-flight inspections, refueling, and coordinating with pilots and maintenance crews.
