WHY ALL THIS BACKSLAPPING, BOOT LICKING, LOVEY DOVEY HYPE?? We all know Ops guys are so blatantly envious of us pilots, its really a waste of time trying to explain to them why our roles are more valued and dare I say it superior.
There is no comparison in the skills required to command a large jet aircraft, compared to the paper shuffling they so often whinge and complain about having to do.
GO ON get a license (if you're up to it) and then maybe, just maybe you'll have some credibility when it comes to discussing aviation with the professionals.
