Atlas. Your and Vortime's positions are chalk and cheese.

You are flying your own aircraft. Vortime is advocating occupying a seat in a commercial aeroplane. He suggests he'd only be taking a seat that would otherwise be empty which is fine but that also leads us down the unpaid pilots' assistant route (open large can of worms here).

Do I care whether it affects, or you think it affects you - no.
Despite all the training you've been through you seem have missed the bit titled 'CRM'. No extra points for charm, eh? I would suggest that your decision to stay away from commercial flying was the best for all concerned.


Vortime. I'm sorry if some of the reactions here cause offence but what you have to realise is that you would be having an effect, however 'second hand' and however small, on a professional pilot. As I and others have already said imagine if it happened to you. Just because what we happen to do for a living can be so much fun doesn't mean it's fair to contribute to the demise in T&C's
