Stress...I just checked...the E is by the S. Iain...did you start drinkin again? I remember you quit when you were a bartender. One thing I gotta know....is Fosters considered a good beer in AU or is it crap they just ship to the US as an "imported" beer. I just had two Fosters at Hooters and was not impressed...by the beer that is....

Hope your having fun in AU. I'm stuck in Louisville, KY for the next six weeks. Arggg...
 
Been quite a few years since I visited 'down under', but I remember them laughing at Fosters. GB (I think?) was the beer of the day...

A lot of the 'overpaid pilot' angst comes from outright jealousy.

Spot on. You put it well.
 
If you really look at its not luck. Its hard work, determination, and lots of sacrifice. Being a pro pilot of any pay scale (from Capt to a CFI) is not easy by any means. Like mentioned many times above instead of having a new shiney sports car pilots are out instructing just to get some peanut butter and bread. The end result can be very glorious and profitable but we werent given this job for our looks. WE busted our hineys to make it happen and thats the bottom line.
 
Everyone makes too much money, everyone makes too little money. Everyone works too hard, everyone goofs off too much.

Sometimes, I wonder if we really have advanced much further than the monkeys we originated from!
