Marines, Laz. Marines. Sheesh.

Flew as a helicopter door gunner, worked day job as a aircraft logs and records guy.

The experience gave me a FR-unique view of pilots--they make dumb mistakes just like everyone else.

The difference between a doctor and a pilot is that a doctor buries his mistakes, while a pilot gets buried BY his mistakes :o)
