Fake pilots put everyone at risk, especially those who they are paid to carry safely to their destinations.
Fake pilots dilute the trust that the public has in us.
Fake pilots dilute the value of our decades of dedication and experience.
A couple guys here defending fake pilots? Really? I can't for the life of me understand why anyone who spent 15-25 years getting to the top of his profession, being sympathetic to someone who took shortcuts, and faked his way to the top. You guys really want to defend this?
I can only think of one reason anyone would defend them, but I won't make that accusation. I am sure everyone else is thinking the same as me.
