1. Tintin (himself).
2. Piotr Skut.

Who else was a pilot?

Columbani, the co-pilot in Flight 714.

Also the unnamed pilot who shoots at Tintin in The Black Island. Then in the same adventure, the unnamed pilot who helps Tintin follow Dr.Muller and his driver, Ivan (and which crashes in the cloudy fog).

In "Ottakar's Sceptre" the unnamed pilot who lets Tintin's seat drop out from the plane.

In Crab with the Golden Claws, the unnamed pilot in the seaplane which hunts Tintin and Captain Haddock.

I'll post more as I remember.

There's also "Major Wings", the pilot from The Shooting Star. He isn't named in the book but had his own feature in some of the first issues of Tintin magazine called "Le Propos du Major Wings".

Are you looking for every pilot or just the named ones?

The unamed ones are plenty, several books have flying at some point in it.

Just the names ones. Characters with names.
