I once had a non pilot charter pax ask me before the flight why we
charged so much money for our services. I told him he could make the
flight one of two ways. We could walk out to the airplane together,
get in, and I'd do the flying, or I could show him the airplane and
he was welcome to try it by himself.

The high salaries of some airline pilots are mostly high for
historical reasons. It's best not to look too closely at how much
they are actually worth.

Snort!

Not half what i'm paid, fjukkwit.

Or maybe you can figure out the great circle route to Oz using just a
pencil and paper? Or figure out your long when you only have Sirius to
look at? Or know what it means to the airplane when you're flying with a
20 knot tailwind on a 4 deg app. and the surface temp is lower than
where you are..

Didn't think so.
