The current system works, if you read the link I posted on the first page you will find no benefit to changing over to the army system. Case closed.

Are you sure it is not your own inadequacies and insecurities that you are highlighting when you label all pilots as arrogant?

Now where does the guy label ALL pilots as arrogant? He implies that some are, and in my experience
they make themselves abundantly apparent, usually with a high pitch whine - rather like tinnitis but much more persistent and annoying - which remains long after any sortie. In the FAA at sea it is usually cured with a bout of night flying, after which they're quieter, paler and with a much less chisseled jawline.

Unfortunately in the RAF there is no cure. Left unchecked they usually reach Air rank, from where they proceed to perpetuate the species.
