Caruthers and like-posters are pilot-haters.
Either they are pilots who just haven't cut the mustard and are bitter in a dead-end job, watching others reap in the bigger coin, or they just aren't pilots, and are sick with jealousy.
Bit like old Bob Hawke, a card carrying failed pilot who went on to Uni, thought he meant something and joined politics, that paragon of virtuous employment.
So I guess the tried and true method of child psychology applies here whereby we just ignore the anti-pilot and he/she eventually goes away.
Having said that, it is disappointing to note the attempt at making fools of the enthusiasts who either wear or own flying paraphernalia.
So what if the dude wears a flying jacket, Ray Baun's or whatever else?
