Crazy how you assume I am a male.....
I actually didn't completely get your point of the other post .... but in my experience from flying charter for 3 years and airline for 3 years ..... each have different difficulties .... and both deserve a significant amount of money .... but the charter flying was by far more demanding of my actual piloting skills

My post was simply in response to the slam that all we fly are coupled ILS approaches in Class B airspace. Anyone who makes a statement like that is simply ignorant. I wasn't trying to start a debate on airline vs. charter and which is more difficult.
