Black Belt,
I guess that means there are tens of thousands of undeserving pilots on airline payrolls, world wide.
I wonder? Do they care, or are they happy to have the job.
A logical extension would be for you to suggest that countries that do not have a large GA sector (which is increasingly the case in Australia) or, perhaps large military (again Australia) should not have airlines, because there is no "deserving" pool of "hard yards" pilots.
Tootle pip!!
