Probably worthy of note is that eye to hand co-ordination and being good on the sticks aren't actually the whole picture when assessing someone's qualities as a pilot.

Deliberately trimming trees and continuing to fly, along with all sorts of other extreme risk-taking (no matter how much you justify it by saying they were making a lot of money) does not qualify as good piloting.

If these guys had been flying in this manner to avoid enemy fire and fight a war, that would be a different thing entirely but they were just hunting deer.
