Anthill, your a wan ker!
Greybeard may be the best pilot in the world, good luck to him.
How often do we here a sniveling suck up F/O blowing trumpets up an incompetent training pilots back side. (not suggesting grey beard is, don't know him)
The reality is that a jet is not impossible to fly and most pilots can do it, some better than others, but guess what, some people can fly a turbo prop better than others.
I recall back in my early days, a current 727 captain wanted to hire a C172, no way in this world was he safe enough to be let loose by himself.
At about 10 feet he kept pushing forward on the elevator. That may work in some jets, it doesn't in light aircraft. His attitude was dreadful. I'm a jet captain son, what would you know. Well what I knew was that he wasn't hiring an aircraft with my approval.
Some people shouldn't be allowed out of their house unaided, most people could fly a jet! Get over yourself.
