In all the years I have been on Free Republic, I have never taken a comment personally - until now. Sir, you’re outta line. I’m a retired B-767 Captain & Line Check Airman for a major airline, Instructor pilot, Vietnam veteran. Frankly, you don’t know what you’re talking about.
I flew large airplanes between 1970 and 2004 - DC-3, -6, -7, -8, Connies, B-707, -720, -727, -737, -757, and -767. I saw NO significant difference in the skill levels of airline pilots between all the Air Force, Army, civilian, Marine Corps and Navy pilots in my career. Period.
I know one or two military trained pilots...Air Force and Navy...a lot of them end up as commercial pilots. Cool under pressure ...nothing but respect from me! If they couldn’t have hacked the training, they would have busted out. It takes an extraordinary person to be a great pilot.
