Why do you find it frustrating? We all have choices in life and, as someone said earlier, we play the hand we are dealt to the best of our ability.
I guess you're right then - if we were born in Rwanda we would probably have different things to worry about rather than learning to fly.

It was just a comment on the initial thread starters and following replies.
Q. Is it such a big achievement for a young man to obtain a commercial licence and fly a jet for a living when your dad is paying for the training and is getting you the F/O job ?
A. No - I don't think it's a big achievement.

It was simply a comment. No frustration. There are worse things in life than not being able to fly a jet.
