Commercial aviation is not the Air Force. No commercial pilot ever declared an "oath of enlistment". No commercial pilot "salutes" his chief pilots or any higher ranked person. You're making completely wrong comparisons. It's a simple negociated contract between an employer and an employee to do a job.
