Default Better drivers?

by "Peter Duniho" Jun 9, 2006 at 05:37 PM


"What I *would* agree with is that pilots are an arrogant lot, with a
tendency to think that they are superior to the average person and a
misplaced belief that that above-average-ness permeates throughout their
entire existence. I've seen that attitude posted here enough, that's for

sure.




Agreed. No one personifies this attitude better than Boyer, a
megalomaniac who thinks the Congress and FAA report to him, and that the
nonflying "civilians" affected by small planes and GA airport have no
rights, or even ability to comment, even though it is their tax dollars
subsidizing the business.

This arrogant attitude is why some pilots react angrily and irrationally
when faced with facts about things like FAA funding sources.
