Spoken like a real amateur.
You got me...that's precisely what I am.
am·a·teur ( m' -tûr', -t r, -ch r', -ch r, -ty r')
n.
A person who engages in an art, science, study, or athletic activity
as a pastime rather than as a profession.

Note the aviation accident statistics in which professionals (or those who
follow their procedures) tend to have far fewer crashes than their amateur
brethern.

What a colossal dork you are. Are you this pathetic in real life, or
just when you get on the internet? What *possibly* made you think I
take flying any less seriously than someone who gets paid?

Does Bose also expect my kids and my wife to use the headphones to fly
and not play games?

Bose aims at the professional pilot, not the rank amatuer. For those others,
there's a slew of cheap alternatives.

Really? Bose doesn't want to sell me any of their headphones? I'll
have to send them back with an apology.

Hey, pilots out there... if you don't get paid to fly, don't by Bose
headphones. Matt won't stand for it.

Also, the words are spelled "amateur" and "brethren." Here's hoping
you fly better than you spell.

BTW, do you follow such a cavalier attitude when your wife and kids are
aboard?

Ugh. What do you think?
Really, give me your honest answer, Mr. Professional.
