Considering that the most important causes of stress are divorce, death, marriage, and changing jobs, I understand... 

Success in life is when the cognac that you drink is older than the women you drink it with.

I would be stressed too without an ADI on my main EFIS displays, and with the standby ADI upside down!!!

Are they kidding me. What about the young lady who lost her life(God Bless her) in the Buffalo Dash 8 crash making 16,000 a year working two jobs. They should be looking at those salaries and the pilots stressed out working 2-1/2 jobs two make ends meet.

"God bless her"?? What about the poor basterds strapped into the back seats with NO clue of the simple fact that the pilots couldn't even fly!??DHCdriver wrote:$106,153.00Are they kidding me.

Perfect. Now when people ask me why I enjoy drinking so much, I can show them this.
Re: pilot = #1 most stressful job of 2011
Well obviously I feel the same way for the rest of the victims. My point being the underpaid pilot sitting in the right seat making peanuts working two jobs. I'm sure she felt some sort of stress going to work everyday. The flight crews inexpierence and salaries could be and should be another post.Doc wrote:God bless her"??
