Ok, ok, we get the idea already.
I am NOT ex-mil, however, ex-mil pilots are some of the most talented and capable individuals I have had the pleasure to spend time in a cockpit with.
I think I can safely say that for every tosser ex-mil pilot Bunnion has come across, I could introduce one civvie pilot who should have never been allowed to get within 100 yards of a helicopter.
That both backgrounds have their advantages and shortcomings should be obvious, even to someone who feels, for whatever reason, as having been slighted by a member from the "opposite" side.
Some of the best operations I have come across are those having a mix of ex-mil and civvie pilots on their roster's. But to single out one group only as somehow being "less" than the other group, well what can I say, I certainly wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of all the abuse I'd be expecting.
One man's opinion.
