Doctors Vs Pilots

Dear Mr Calder,

Please note the following points to help you overcome your ignorance:

1) Doctors dont undergo breathaliser tests or have biannual medicals.

2) An operation theatre does not travel at Mach.86 at 41000 feet in a thunderstorm.

3)Doctors are not monitored through voice or data recorders

3) Doctors dont suffer from Jet Lag

4) Pilots cannot kill passengers one evening and walk off to the nearest pub for a drink with the mates.

5)Pilots often pay with their OWN lives for making mistakes.
