Correctly recording (lack of) qualifications

A moderator doing sterling work on the Ahmedabad accident discussions has requested that posters ensure that their profiles are updated with their piloting qualifications so that the moderation task can be eased.

This is fine.

I would like some clarification on how non-pilots should record their lack of piloting qualifications. The relevant fields in the profile are labelled as being for pilots only, so in principle, should be left blank/undisturbed by non-pilots.

Should I actually enter text such as 'N/A' to indicate that the question is not applicable to me?

Or should I leave it blank and put in the 'Biography' field some status such as SLF/SLC (Self Loading Freight/Self Loading Cargo)?

Or should I put SLF/SLC in the 'pilots-only' field?

I have searched for an answer, and came up with nothing. I acknowledge that this might be a result of my poor search skills.

I have PMed the a relevant moderator, but they are likely too busy on more pressing tasks to deal with administrivia like this. I have no quibble with this: the mods do an excellent job in trying circumstances, so triage of incoming messages is necessary.

As a result, I am posting this. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Semreh.
