Cockpit figure (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pilot

'cockpit figure' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for pilot that I've seen before include "Guide, leader" , "Plane flyer" , "This person can be found in a plane or a boat" , "air traffic controller?" , "Guide, flyer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the Jonesin', the Newsday.com, the L.A. Times Daily and The New York Times.
