Thumbs down Overpaid bus drivers?

Why is it that airline pilots have such a high opinion of themselves and their profession? Surely they are just operators of a mode of transport, the same as bus drivers. Although saying that bus drivers dont have the same level of automation the modern jet pilot has and probably have to work harder. Is'nt it time airlines realised that these people are taking the p*** with their high salaries and expensive benifits. Would'nt it be better to pay the engineers more instead. These guys must be the true proffesionals in the industry.
