Chiefie is military and aviation slang for a chief — specifically a senior non-commissioned officer in the Royal Air Force, often a Chief Technician or Chief Petty Officer. It's an affectionate, informal version of the rank, the kind of thing you'd hear in a hangar or mess hall rather than on a formal parade. The '-ie' diminutive softens the rank without undermining the respect behind it. Still used in British armed forces circles and occasionally in Commonwealth military contexts.
A tribal chief of the Chinookan peoples in the Pacific Northwest of the United States.
