As to the attitude of the flat-stoners who say "why should pilots look down on OC MT or whatever". The long and the short of it is that you could never do their job, but they can do yours if they had to (or OC catering or whatever). This means that not everyone is equal.

Trust me - with an attitude like that, there is no way on God's green earth that you could ever be an OC MT!

Contrary to what you may think, the 'rest' of us didn't all join the RAF to fly things, so we're not all failed single seaters. Never saw the attraction in flying really. Sure - looks interesting, exciting etc but not my cuppa really. I'm more interested in the people I work with and move around than the tin can they move around in - land, sea or air-borne. Sorry if that shatters any illusion.

Do the people on Shifyt Fix not even know thay are called that?! Bless.
