Not contradicting anything you're verbalizing, but that same "mental" attitude was shared once by a co-worker who felt any single engine airplane was "beneath him" as he had over 2500 hours flying his flight simulator at home. . . probably the same arrogance as this doctor.

I personally paid for his first "discovery flight" and brought along four/five other co-workers along to the airport to watch him fly.

From beginning to end, you could tell who had the airplane and who didn't. After they landed, he lost his arrogance quickly and apologized vehemently to all. He's a private pilot. . . took him 75 hours, but he's flying . . .and not so cocky.
