Don't some of you guys worry about sounding pompous? Not to mention silly?
Sorry if you can't deal with it, Thomas Coupling, but you're not Superman. If I had a student with your mindset I'd sit him (or her) down and have a long chat about attitude - about how arrogance leads to accidents. I'd try to beat a little humility into him, get him to realise his shortcomings. Get off your high horse. You're not a brain surgeon or a concert pianist, you're a pilot, and any average joe can be taught to do what you do.
Anybody who believes to the contrary needs to address some self-esteem issues.
