I like your list Basil, especially point 3. I cringe when I see Captains lambasting and berating ground staff, engineers, dispatchers etc. where the hell do they get this attitude from? It has always seemed to me to be a sign of their own insecurity and damaged personalities. Maybe it makes them feel Big and Important. But it reflects badly on the rest of us, and I resent that.

I'm not a fan of Chinese Soap Operas but I've become aware of that series Triumph In The Skies, and noticed the stereotypical way the Expat cockpit crew are represented. Mostly as a-holes. Think about that next time you walk through TC in uniform.
