Even the lowly cabin boy, Pip, and the cook, Fleece emerge as far richer characters than the base caricatures of African-Americans that they may at first appear to be. This deceptive use of stereotypes is further evinced in the characters of Ahab’s mysterious harpooneer and advisor, Fedallah and his ghostly crew.

The demeanor of the captain displays his laissez-faire style of leadership especially in the cockpit, where the flight crew ignored both company and FAA‘s sterile cockpit rule.
