Those ratings and a thousand hours might get you a job flying a piston powered lance hauling checks at night. If you think having the most basic of ratings of a professional pilot allows you to comment with an authoritive voice on airline operations, you are mistaken. You have more in common with airline pilots because you are a controller than a pilot. Once many moons ago, I was an entry level pilot, I believed I had a grasp on airline flying because of flying air ambulance for years, I was wrong as are you.
Your posts in other threads impress me because your opinion is based upon seemingly vast experience working the ATC system.
Even if I disagreed with you, I could find a common ground. Here however your arguement is clouded by the inference that weekend flying in a C172 or perhaps a C310 differs little from an airline gig.
