Well, I sure as hell don't consider myself to still be a student.
Not after 20,000+ flight hours.

Bob,

I think his point would be that even with all your glorified wide body time,
you come take a ride with me in my F-15 and you're a student buddy. If you
think you're not, then you're dangerous.

I worry more about the 20,000 hour "I can fly anything" pilot than I do
about my younger guys who "know they know nothing". (when transitiioning to
a new airframe)

(not saying you're like that, just trying to explain his point)
