Look, as long as we are all derogatory to the same level and maybe there is a banner we could put up somewhere (as in "health warning - do not expect to find political correctness here"), we can all get on and talk about the stuff that matters.

PC wrecks every aspect of our lives and has, arguably even cost lives in some situations where it has stifled sensible (re)action.

I know we could be accused of creating our own little world with jargon and slang, but for goodness sake..... what a dull, boring world it will be when we can only use Webster's Politically Correct Dictionary Spell Checker.

So, let's even the field up a bit if it makes people feel better....

why not refer to:

pilots as "PAXi drivers"
Airline Execs "PAXidermists"
small charter a/c pilots "SixPAX"
1st Class "Value Added PAX"

I'm sure you agile and non-PC minds out there can come up with more. After all, none of us do any real work do we?
