Presumably the bloke who sweeps out the hangar didn't have a long and strenuous training programme, and then numerous dissapointments, so that he could work full time in aviation. Presumably he also didn't start his first aviation job penniless or in debt and feeling deeply privileged to be there nonetheless.
But, I doubt anybody else avoided it - whether it's an Engineer, Pilot or even most of the administrators (although you wonder sometimes) nobody had an easy route in.
And, whilst it's a dull mind that can only think of one way to spell a word, most of us do have a dictionary on the shelf.

A boy ran away to the circus. His father followed him to the next town and found him behind the big top knee-deep and mucking out the elephants. "Son", he said "please come home"; "what?" said the boy, grinning and looking around him, "and miss out on being part of all the glamour of showbusiness". Welcome to professional aviation!
