I think it might be your continued implication that the rank and file at the FAA are there because they 'couldn't hack it' in the real world.
I just started a couple of months ago. I 'barely made it' through 30 years in the corporate biz jet market. One of the other new hires is there as a retired 777 captain, who had a medical issue. We're both there because we actually want to (and can afford to) give something back, maybe actually increasing safety.
I certainly have no axe to grind, I won't be looking to end someone airline guy's career.
