Don't jump to conclusions too quickly pal! I did a two months stint as
a co-pilot for a charter company flying from Sydney- Brisbane with
stops in between about 2 years ago. Departing at 1am and having an 8

stops if you fall asleep!!
I suppose you will argue that driving a train is harder than flying?
And I paid for my training.
