I am just curious about these young guys and girls that want to step into a 737 or A320 from the word go. Are they curious at all about hand flying at grass roots level? You will find that most pilots who have done bush flying or other types of GA work look back on it with fondest memories. Most often they say its the best flying they have ever done, even if they are now in a nice jet. Its certainly true for me. I still like to think I can go back one day and have a go at flying in the bush, maybe in a classic like a DC3. Cause I miss it.
Its quite sad that they will never know the true joy of flying, low level over a river or flying close to active volcanes. Or the satisfaction of evacuating casualties or people trapped in war zones. Its not for everyone but it is real flying, makes you a better pilot and gives you some great memories to keep for ever.
I suppose the their bank managers wont be complaining........
