I have no idea of who the prinicples involved here are and really don't care. I do however take offence to the comments made about bush pilots. I am a Canadian that now flies for a major airline and am damn proud of my "bush" background. Maybe things are different in your part of the world but over here most of the best pilots I've flown with all got their starts flying in the bush. Believe me when the chips are down on a dark and stormy night I would much rather have a guy that hasn't had the "bush" taken out of him flying, than some wonderkid that paid for all his TR's and started in the RHS of a jet!
