Partially agree here. At work I see the types who have to make sure
evryone at a party knows they are a pilot. They drive around town
running errands 3 hours before sign in IN their uniforms, they have
mailboxes shaped like an F16, they have a jet engine for a ringtone on
the cellphone etc. Most of these guys are a pain to have to fly with.
Their entire persona is wraped up with being a pilot. Mebbie they just
need something better to do on their days off.

There are really such pilots? It sounds like some sort of Hollywood parody.
There are, just as there are pilots with good solid personalities. There
is also a third scenario to envision; that being a pilot with a good
solid personality who is visualized as being other than this by someone
or others with personality problems of their own.
