I don't like these things any more than you. I just do not think it is healthy to deny the truth. If I were king you and I would work for the same airline and be paid a kings ransom. We would hand fly smokey old 727's VFR all over the PNW and Alaska. Our weekends would be spent in Elk camp in the fall and riding trails on dirt bikes in the summer.
Sadly though the world is not like that anymore. Modern airliners are all automated boredom tubes and the Elk are scarce. The world is changing. We have to change with the times or get left behind.
The future belongs to video games and pilot proof planes.

Yes the future belongs to video games and pilot proof planes. Is it going to happen in the next 50 years? Is there anything I can do about it? We are more likely to see computer generated doctors replacing doctors before we see pilotless planes. Go try and scare them.
