Pilot: medium skin tone Emoji

Usage Context
Used to discuss travel, aviation, or career paths in the aerospace industry. It is frequently sent by passengers heading to the airport or by people celebrating a career milestone. It often appears alongside other transit icons like ✈️ or 🛫 to clarify that someone is currently in the air or heading to a flight.
History
The ability to modify human emojis with skin tones was introduced in 2015 with Unicode 8.0, allowing for more diverse representation. The specific gender-neutral 'pilot' role was later added to the standard set in 2016 to better reflect the diverse reality of modern commercial aviation.
