I have to agree that it is all about the attitude and skill of the individual!
There are many pilots with chips on their shoulders thinking that being a 'Bush Pilot' makes them a good hands-on operator..... and the same for an Airline pilot who thinks they're better at the other stuff.....
However, I have known a few people that have not quite hacked the bush flying thing ie. going off runways etc, (purely due to a lack of co-ordination and confidence - basically should never have been issued a Comm, but that's a whole different issue) who have settled very well in an airline environment in the right-hand seat?
But then bush flying isn't for everyone!
Swamprat are you bored mate?
