I am always amazed when I hear people castigating others who happen to have different jobs to themselves.

I remember attending an international air show at Fairford, not far from Lyneham, which had dozens of propeller driven aircraft based there, which were generally used to haul baggage and boxes around the skies.

Some of the drivers of these aircraft were visiting the show, and were pontificating about their misfortune not to have the wherewithall to be offered a job with BA. They had such high opinions of themselves that we 744 jetliner pilots, and one Concorde pilot, almost felt inferior. Gosh, these prop a/c drivers were good, at least according to themselves. So gullible too.

Ah well, everyone has a purpose in life, I suppose..............
