Well Lingdee has certainly earned the head seat at the kiddy table, while the professional pilots sit and eat at the adult table.
The only qualifications I've seen demonstrated by the P2Fer is the ability to pay their way into the cockpit. Perhaps Lingdee and HermannP are into suggestive polling... as my peers have no respect for the P2Fer, that's both F/O and Captains. The funniest I ever heard was when a passenger asked her if the F/O was the pilot. She said no... he's not a real pilot. His parents had to pay the airline so baby sitters could watch him. That must have been a real proud moment for the little shave tail.
