Ok, so, I'm apparently an arsehole for calling out Alex for stuff like logging 20+ hrs of turbine time and even 6 hrs of jet time before he even soloed a C-152. I still think it's intellectually and professionally dishonest, but whatever.

Chalk it up to not having slept in my own bed since Thanksgiving, and having spent only 5 days with my gf since then.

And to the fact that I'm not one of those skipping instructing or towing banners or throwing meat missiles or aerial survey, yet will still be competing unfavorably with JTrain and the other 300 ExpressJet dudes on the street come October.
