I'm sure there is no need for the abusive PM's!

I guess it all comes down to how good you are. Some people pick things up easily and quickly and can be very competent with relatively low hours, total flying hours don't always tell the whole story when judging how good or knowledgable a Pilot may or may not be. As mentioned before it also comes down to how many years of exposure to the flying industry that you have, how many accident reports that you have read, how many friends or aquaintences that you have lost in flying accidents over the years (I can count 4 now in 15 years and have learned something from them all). You could just be very talented at flying and have a natural flare for it.
