I have also flown with CIV pilots that suck too. So until you have had both MIL/CIV training please do not push the MIL vs CIL is better.
OK soapbox off switch is where exactly?
You have flown with FA18 guys who got scared in the clouds. I wonder how in the world they hand flew solo approaches to the boat at night in the darkest environment anywhere often to minimums or less. Strange they would get scared in the clouds.
