Crewbouy - I am a joburg taxi driver and I take offence to the suggestion that the average pilot is more qualified than me.

Driving a taxi in Joburg is very difficult. I spent almost half an hour every day for at least a week getting taught how to drive by my cousin Siphiso. And then I had to pay my cousin R400 to organise me a licence from his connection in the traffic department.

I demand an apology.

Come on guys/gals, if the work was really all that hard, none of us would really be doing it would we? There would be an army of Engineers and Doctor types doing it. We are too lazy and by far too stupid.
I just love the sitting in the chair thing, getting someone to pay me to do it for him.LOVE IT!
I cannot see my self doing anything else, for the pure fact that it has always been value for money.

Work is a pastime for people that dont know that you could past the same time flying and get paid!

Come on guys/gals,
Fess up!

I know a Gun that will agree.......

Contraxdog is right!

You don't need to be a brain surgeon to be a pilot - plenty of examples to prove that.

And it's a much better alternative to work.

I suspect cluelessbuoy is just frustrated he has to work for a living.

Probably an aircraft mechanic - always whinging about pilots. (Don't blame them actually - ha, ha)

Let's not lie, alot of times our working day consists of signing for papers, getting into the plane, landing on the other side and getting a free lunch before we come back. BUT that is certainly not always the case...

And last time I checked any successful professional, whichever profession he/she finds themselves in, enjoy what they do. I know of alot of people who have 8 to 5 jobs but enjoy every single moment of it.

The thing is alot of people take us pilots out because we "never do any real work". But all I can say to them is, become a pilot and then we'll see if you can cope with it.

Being a pilot is a profession but it is also a lifestyle that you have to adapt to very bloody quickly otherwise you ain't gonna make it boedie!!!

I get seriously F'd off when people tell me that I only fly because it means that I don't have to work. AND do not say pilot's are "not intellligent"...

Think about it this way...

You can become a doctor by scraping your arse through on a 50 % score but to even be able to do your practical test for a CPL you need 75 % in all your subjects.

Apart from that many pilots have university degrees in Mathemaics, Physics, Management and many others.

Crewbouy: You better get your facts straight before you start playing with the big boys.

And in conclusion...

I think Crewbuoy started this post just to spark the fierce reaction he is now getting. Misspelling and all - it's all just pretend. When last has he responded?

Mission accomplished, my friend!

Well, I was told a couple of years ago by a old pilot with LOTTTS of hours and alive to tell me this:

"My boy, flying isnt difficult, but when it is, you are busy doing something wrong. Remember that!"

I try and remember that,...sometimes...

Good topic starter..crewbouy. It works every time without fault.
