They clearly have had no aviation grounding drummed into them by a square jawed searge installing the basics, or being chased round the hard stand by your instructor in a harvard for a slow scan....
Yeah, those damn civilians, because everybody knows - if you're a civilian you can't be trusted to dress properly! And don't get me started on how those communists/civilians couldn't even learn about aeroplanes out there in civilian land, what with the information and desire to learn all about it being freely available and all! You had to be chased around by some military guy, otherwise your knowledge and passion to fly means nothing! Sheesh! I'm going to do 50 pushups now, just to prove I'm not like them!
