I think you might have misunderstood my point, when you quoted me.
I was simply trying to say, that whether someones flying is funded by parents, or through their own career, is irrelevant as far as their flying achievements goes. Their career achievements and their flying achievements are separate things, and shouldn't be confused.
This young mans flying achievements are a great accomplishment and deserve praise, irrespective of how it was financed.
