Responsibility... Just like a sea captain.

Then why aren't the requirements for sea captains just as stringent, and
the
pay the same? The captain of an ocean liner has ten times as many people
to
worry about as the captain of an airliner.

And FWIW, one of my best friend's dad is a retired PanAm B747 captain
who has owned light aircraft all his life, and he says "Yes, the 747
is more difficult to fly".

What else would you expect a retired 747 captain to say?

Airliners _were_ difficult to fly, in the days when they had no
automation.
But times have changed. And Pan Am went out of business long ago.


What else would we expect you to say, you clueless twit.
