realistically all a pilot needs to do is taxi correctly.
Modern commercial airplanes literally can fly themselves.from takeoff to landing. Pilots are just there for random problems that occur like flying through a flock of geese.

I don’t know how to taxi a 777 correctly, but I can fly one.
takeoff to landing.

This is a ridiculous myth. You THINK you can fly a B-777, but as an airline check airman for 40 years I could make you wet your pants in 5 minutes in a simulator.

Adding that to the list of: If I can't drive there, I'm not going there.
