Having read all the comments I’ve seen the error of my ways and changed my mind, I’m going to hand back my licence until such time as I have completed 400,000 hours of mass and balance calculations for a 50 year old aircraft using a slide rule and a piece of pink string. Can’t believe how reckless I’ve been so far in only achieving the required licence standard from the regulator and not first translating and writing out all of the learning objectives into 58 different languages to achieve full comprehension.

Just for my benefit, is it worth me also learning to play the piano up to concert pianist level just in case I have to divert to a regional airport and the only way I can raise the money to afford spares due to lack of local currency is to work as an accompanying musician at a local jazz bar? Is it acceptable to learn using an electric keyboard at least for the first few years or would that make me an even worse pilot?
