Hi white boy, I was already flying jets when you were still wetting your pants!
As a pilot, ATC controller, flight dispatcher, operations controller, aviation trainer and consultant I would call myself rather an real aviator than somebody limited to living his boyhood dream and never progressed beyond that.
Anyway, I am happy to watch this declining industry as a frequent flying spectator, it's time for you to realize that you are just an inconvenient cost factor nowadays. The times for knights strutting through the airport with people watching in awe are over for good...
Today lots of pilots are sad subservient individuals like Kijangnim who are praising their masters for treating them like crap while handing out some crumbs...pathetic indeed
