"Pilot's training does not surpass the money or prestige of a Doctor or a Lawyer. But at least they have to fend for themselves without some ridiculous union that even endorses such a ridiculous strike. At least you can sue a Doctor if he screws up. A Pilot's training certainly does not surpass the knowledge of an inventor or College Professor who've probably had to study even longer than a Pilot. There's absolutely no justification whatsoever for these Pilots to be striking for anything and worst of all, if they'd come down to the real plain of existence which most of us reside on, then they'd see first hand that their job and income level is already enviable to most people who can only dream of such incomes and benefits that come with them. Sometimes people can behave truly repulsive and greedy"

ILS down to mins, windshear, hail, gear trouble, aerodynamics, meteorology, engine failures, physics, $100K in education, electrical failures, fires, birdstrikes, hydraulic system failures, pressurization, control surface failures, density altitude, ice, vac system failure, coffin corner, stalls, spins, Vmc, continuous study and testing, crazy pax, possible in-flight threats (hijackings), fog, 0/0 landings, avioding traffic...

Should I go on? $200k isnt high enough!!
