Now THAT is an excellent post. Senator McCain, a third generation Sailor and Naval Aviator, has already stated that pilots are OVERPAID. Gee, I don't feel over paid. With current policy and the direction of new policy, we ALL know that Washington does not have our best interest at heart. I should be working an oil rig for Halliburton ... now theres a secure job with defined benefits, promotions, and the president in it's back pocket.
