R405. My friend, Kapt M, has succinctly hit the nail on the head. Which fortunately has saved me the pleasure of giving it a serious WHACK!

Fella, there is no real comparison that can be made between each of the professions that you use to illustrate your points.

I have two degrees, am studying for my third, and I can tell you straight up that there is very little harder than a single engine NDB and circling approach with compound emergencies in crap weather with a senior check peering over your shoulder.

Doctors may have similar "pressure" situations, but most other professions have no comparison at all.

R405, your ignorance of this indicates your probable lack of experience and qualifications in flying. That is no worries, everyone starts somewhere and follows their own road. But when you begin to tell highly qualified professional pilots that their job is "easy", well, you must forgive us for just a little indignance.

Have a good day!
