What an ignorant and arrogant thing to say. Devoid of all logic. Snobbish. "I fly a big airplane, therefore I am a better pilot than you.." Let's ban all airplanes under 12,500 lbs and keep the riff-raff out?

Where do I even begin to direct such an idiotic comment; just how much "airmanship" is required to drive a human mailing tube through the sky by pushing buttons for example?
First Unknown Target, now Zamfire - it must be an American thing, not to understand the concept of inverse proportionality...
