Why do it if it's not fun?

I also heard of a GP who may have been about the only person ever to fail the human factors exam
I had a student who was GP. He got 100% in his human factors exam - and after marking it and telling him, I made a comment along the lines that I wouldn't expect anything less from him, given his job. He then confessed to me that in his other hobby, diving, he'd failed his human factors (or whatever they call it) exam because he thought he'd know it all so didn't bother reading the books. When he came to aviation, he made damn sure he didn't make the same mistake he'd made in diving!
