Well, as they say "Different strokes for different strokes". Personally I would prefer to stay nearer the ground (scenery is better! LoL). I think i'd prefer flying lighter machines, I'm a big fan of motorbikes, so maybe this is a similar "minimalist" approach showing through?
Whatever, the world needs pilots of all types from Airline hospitality types flying Concorde or corporate pilots flying learjets to "jeans, Raybans & Polo shirt" doing power-line surveys from 100ft up in a helicopter (oh, PLEASE Let me!).
People are welcome to airline work, all the more work for us who want to whizz about in mail planes or air-taxis, really! Shame the money is less but you can't have everything in this life! At least the medical requirements are less taxing (a bit) and you might not have to wear a suit. And you get to meet new people! And might occaisionally get the exitment of technical problems, bad weather and difficult fields!
Vive La differance!
