Here is the truth to the story and I think pilots hate to admit to this. Anybody, if they really wanted to be, is capable of being a pilot. You are not that special, not that talented and yes, not even that smart that anybody walking around on the street today couldn't do your job. So if you wanted to make money, why are you a pilot?
