Nice rant(s).

You guys have heard it: It's not what you know, it's who you know. It is especially true in aviation but also applies to any other career. Even if you're the smartest,fastest, most efficient, whatever, you're not going to get anywhere if you can't network and get your foot in the door somewhere.
