I'm pretty sure the captain outranks the pilot, it would be the pilot disobeying the captains order, which is mutiny.

Can it be regarded as mutiny when the pilot isn't part of the crew?

I would have assumed that the captain is the master of the ship, and the pilot is there to provide guidance.

I would have guessed that if the pilot provides guidance that places the ship at risk the master is then responsible if he follows the advice without recognizing the danger.
