While I have never met another pilot better than me, I do enjoy those who like to argue otherwise.

With that said. Is there any other industry where walking over another just to move up is so poorly looked upon?

Long live goggles and aviator scarves!!!!!

Five??!! Try 7 or 8 a day after getting rocked by turb. and loads of ice at 17k. After all that you 'get' to be the first to land on a contaminated runway that the city is too lazy to plow even though the city streets are scraped clean. Gotta love it.

I assume you're being sarcastic here, right? If not, pilots are definitely as respected as in the past.
