Acting pilot officer (A/Plt Off) is the lowest commissioned grade in the Royal Air Force. Acting pilot officer is not an actual military rank, therefore acting pilot officers are regraded to pilot officer instead of receiving a promotion. Unlike other RAF ranks which officers may hold in an acting capacity, acting pilot officer is maintained as a separate grade. The grade normally denotes an officer who has recently been commissioned and joined as a non-graduate direct entrant.

| - Acting pilot officer (A/Plt Off) is the lowest commissioned grade in the Royal Air Force. Acting pilot officer is not an actual military rank, therefore acting pilot officers are regraded to pilot officer instead of receiving a promotion. Unlike other RAF ranks which officers may hold in an acting capacity, acting pilot officer is maintained as a separate grade. The grade normally denotes an officer who has recently been commissioned and joined as a non-graduate direct entrant. Although acting pilot officer has a NATO ranking code of OF(D), neither the British Army, Royal Marines nor Royal Navy has an exactly equivalent rank. As acting pilot officers are junior to second lieutenants in the British Army or the Royal Marines and to Royal Navy midshipmen, the rank is the most junior commissioned rank in the British Armed Forces. On a University Air Squadron, students can apply for the position of acting pilot officer in order to undertake a senior student or flight commander role, usually four per each UAS. In order to be awarded a Volunteer Reserve commission they have to complete an intensive course run by the Officer and Aircrew Cadet Training Unit at RAFC Cranwell. On graduation, Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve acting pilot officers hold a full commission for one year. This can be extended if serving for more than one year in a senior position on squadron or retained if serving the RAF reserves. Up to 2012, 3 Flying Training School (3FTS) was responsible for the training of UAS APOs. However, starting in 2013 OACTU took over the duties of training acting pilot officers with a course aligned with the commissioning course of the RAF reserves. The rank insignia is identical to that of a pilot officer, consisting of a thin blue band on slightly wider black band. This is worn on both the lower sleeves of the tunic or on the shoulders of the flying suit or the casual uniform. RAFVR APOs have a VR marking on their rank slides, either a small brass VR pin mounted on the stipe or embroidered underneath. Officers of the Royal Air Force Air Cadets are ranked as acting pilot officers until completion of their Officers' Initial Course at RAFC Cranwell.

- Vice ufficiale pilota (inglese: Acting pilot officer; letteralmente sostituto ufficiale pilota), è un grado della Royal Air Force, il cui codice NATO è OF-D, ed è il grado più basso tra gli ufficiali della Royal Air Force e al di sotto dell'ufficiale pilota. Il grado non ha il suo equivalente nel British Army e nel corpo dei Royal Marines e nemmeno nella Royal Navy. Il grado non ha equivalente nell'Aeronautica Militare Italiana Il distintivo di grado di Acting pilot officer, (abbreviato come A/Plt Off) è uguale a quello di ufficiale pilota costituito da una sottile fascia blu su una banda nera leggermente più ampia indossato sul paramano inferiori o sulle spalle della tuta da volo. Gli studenti di uno Squadrone Universitario dell'aria possono fare domanda per ricoprire l'incarico di sostituto ufficiale pilota. Gli studenti degli Squadroni Universitari dell'aria fanno parte della Riserva volontaria della RAF. Gli Acting Pilot Officer della Riserva volontaria della RAF (RAFVR) hanno le lettere VR sul loro distintivo di grado e sono equiparabili agli ufficiali pilota di complemento dell'Aeronautica Militare Italiana. Gli ufficiali della Royal Air Force Air Cadets sono classificati come Acting pilot officer fino al completamento del loro corso alla Royal Air Force College Cranwell (it)
