In short, the discipline required to make it through training. It takes finding money, working hard, spending actual sweat, even overcoming primal fear at times. Book learning, class learning, new coordination skills, juggling work, getting through disappointing lapses, trying again anyway. All of these can be provided by motivation and ambition; maturity is not necessarily required. Indeed, a single-minded pursuit of a goal might well be considered a sign of immaturity, if it leads to an unbalanced lifestyle. It does not mean that all pilots are more mature, of course. There are plenty of examples of the opposite around here daily. Certainly Chuck Yeager wouldn't respond in the childish way many of them do ;-) But this is the net, and I don't think we the outspoken are really representative of the majority in the world... who are just plain solid people with good judgement. I think a lot of people here claim to be what they are not. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |
