I have flown a plane under the tutelage of a relative... No, it isn't the same as taking off and landing and surely doesn't make me an expert. I only say that to show I'm not a stranger to this, but also that is the level of experience I have. No more.
...so from experience, you're much more versed than I. And I respect that. However, and please don't mistake me here, I do not believe any idiot can fly a plane.
People's minds barely work in the "2d" versions of transport that we call roads. A pilot is keeping track of so much more, plus any incoming information. So under no circumstances are pilots considered, "any idiot."
@Rock 'n Roll Relocater has my point pegged. Not everyone can do it. I'm much more concerned about new pilots out of school because the computer handles so much of what used to be done by hand or mentally. What happens when that system fails and the pilot doesn't know how to do it by hand?
That, is the lack of skill I refer to. I can tell you how a nuclear power plant operates, but I don't have the know how or skill to build one, run one, or know what to do in event of a catastrophe.
Does that ease some of what you're thinking? I really mean in no way any disrespect.
That's funny...
I hate Peoplenet, where are you parked and recipes thread
