Maybe thats the one thing Archive Mole hasn't done, become a captain. Hence his bitterness. Those of us with long experience 17000 plus hours will have done many of the jobs he mentions in the past. Paperwork, refuelling (water checking the tanker) etc. However the world has moved on. Long service in one company gives a good pension. His multiple jobs in different areas will have probably reduced his pension considerably. Maybe that is why he is so dissatisfied. However that was his choice or maybe as suggested he was unable to get the secure career choice he desired.
Yes I was able to fulfill my dream, a command on a large aircraft. I wasn_t "ace of the base" just grateful I enjoyed my flying. Hopefully "Archive" will reflect.
