AP I can't dispute that :
a) They are selected.
b) They are better trained.
But I think that more experienced is questionable, and we won't even go near better looking.
There are career civilian pilots who have done it all: mountain, vertical reference, offshore, IFR, night ect.
I have flown with some very excellent military pilots but I have also flown with some military pilots where I have asked myself the question; if the military has such high standards how did this guy get through.
Just my thoughts .
