Degrees

Some do ..many didnt.
Like many in the Aviation industry.
Look at Dixon...doesnt even have an MBA
Lets Be clear...having a degree doesnt make you infallible.
My grandfather referred to many university graduates as educated idiots.
A degree should/can provide insight.... but not always.
If you are 70 years old and have degree you completed in 1952 you are not really in the game irrespective of which campus you attended.
Having an ATPL doesnt make you a fantastic pilot.
It does provide some potential however.
This is irrelevant.
This thread is about a number of things.
Primarily about cause,effect and a way forward.
There is a way forward...particularly in Australia
The decisions being made at a federal level are not being made by one man....he is the spokesperson
Lots of heads better than yours mine and his are very active in determining a positive outcome for this country.
Like it or not this is a work in progress...the situaton is volatile and decisions need to be made in response to the ever changing circumstances.
If anyone in this forum feels that they are better informed and better equipped to resolve the situation then please, by all means, make your way to Canberra.
Meanwhile let these guys do their job and stop being sideline sports mums.
