We are different. No question
Look at a FW pilot:
shiny shoes, clean hands, nice shirt with shoulder stripes, cool sun glasses and often those fancy military leather jackets with several pens in those special pockets on the left arm and an expression of a hero on the face - the dream of any mother in law.
RW pilot: Heavy shoes - you never know where you end up, dirty hands from the preflight, warm shirts - the lucky one, cheap sun glasses, heavy wests in signal colors and an expression of a nervous weasel because we are able to scan at the same time with one eye three engine instruments and with the other either do an IFR instrument scan or a VFR scan for traffic, cables and other things in our flight path. A haircut we get....
... when the forest fire is out
... when the concrete is dry
... whenever we get out of the bush
... next winter
As long as we know, that we are just a bunch of nice guys, I don't mind.
