Right. So everybody thinks that in a few generations global aviation will vanish, and we'll all be crossing the pond on Titanic again? No more pilots anymore huh? So who'll be flying in the next few generations? A rich, well funded elite? Thats not what aviation is about. That seems to be the gist of the gloom n' doomers here.

Well, what if I want to fly because I love it? It doesnt have to be an A380 (although thats what I'd be aiming for), at the end of the day, I'm satisfied flying bits and bobs on a Caravan to and fro, or any other type of aerial work. I dont care. I WANT TO FLY!!! I look up to people like Lindbergh, the Wright bros, Louis Bleriot, Yeager. People who had a dream and a love. They inspired generations. They churned out generations of aviators. If you want the flashy airline job and nothing else, you're in it for the looks.
