…it’s not the bottom half of the list but whatever, so sue me. It still proves the point...we’re not “youngins”.
Well I guess you’re not one of the younger pilots that WRXPilot is excited to see come in and save us all from ourselves 😜. You can hang with us not quite old pilots and watch it happen. I’ll bring the popcorn. Let’s get saved.
In case you missed the point, I did not refer to all new hires or junior pilots as youngsters…some are older than me. Junior does not correlate with young. The younger pilots that will save our culture according to wRXpilot are the “youngsters.” And in reality, they too are not real youngsters but rather adult men and women not quite as far along in years. I simply found it weird that a grown man feels the need to be rescued by these younger pilots. I did not mean to insult this group of youngsters that apparently you are not a member of. I am poking fun at the guy who needs them to save our “culture.” 🤔
