exmexican,
I didnt make myself clear... I am happy for the handful who came 20-30 years ago and now own half of KNX... they did well and certainly know what they are/were doing... I was refering to the people who got their over the last couple of years...and think that they will make the great living... I met plenty of them...and I was warned before I got there...
Now I am in a REAL country town with REAL country people, not "country people wannabees"... and I am enjoying it and having beers with them...
In regards to "excess knowledge" I was talking about non-aviation stuff, as a 200hrs cpl guy I know nothing about flying and I am aware of that... but in other fields such as building, pizza-making, IT, marketing... a couple of mid/late 20 year old pilots might have some knowledge which could benefit and improve a local's bussiness... but unfortunately the locals in KNX dont like that...
