What's wrong with their attitude?

Typically they have not only simulated the destruction of a number of
aircraft, but are completely unaware of the aspects of aviation that occur
before takeoff and after landing. It takes time and effort to get them
understand neither is an option in real aviation.

There are other people who are excited by risk.

This seems to be a favorite theme of yours. In my experience, such people
tend to favor more extreme activities such as parachuting or mountain
climbing, over flying They tend to be discouraged by what they call
"restrictive rules" of aviation. For most pilots, in my experience, the
fascination of flying is something quite remote from the thrill-seeking
behavior you describe.

But I recall that this theme has been discussed at length here recently, so
obviously it would be a waste of time for me to continue repeating what
other aviators have already said. Have a nice day.
