It never ceases to amaze me how bitter people come across on these boards when they get a good news story. I am sure that Busz would have loved to have been a C152 instructor clocking up 1500 of those hallowed single piston engine hours before jumping into the RHS of a TP or heaven forbid a big bad jet. But alas nope, he passed countless tests, fit a certain profile sought by his employers. Rather than burning holes in the sky at 1500ft navigating with a chart covered in fan lines and trying to find the ocassional tv mast in the drizzle he spent his time more valuably in a level D sim getting himself up to speed with flying profiles just like he does on the line today. Some of you guys need to see the wood for the trees and appreciate that aviation has moved. The looming MPL should be evidence enough for you. Well done Busz!
