I was recently on a flight and the pilot came overhead, stated we would be flying at 30,000 feet. What?! I knew this had to be an error because I have been researching flight paths across the US. This pilot should know it would be best to fly at 18,000 feet. So I had him come over so I could explain to him why he was wrong to choose this altitude. Shockingly, he didn’t agree and tried to use his education and experience as a pilot to dispute my thorough research. Of course! What an elitist to use his education and training in rebuttal of my Google search. I kindly pointed out how his training was funded by the FAA and they profit off of commercial flights. FOLLOW 👏🏻THE👏🏻MONEY. As I started to explain how he was just a sheep and he needed to start learning from those of us who have googled ideas that confirm our own bias, we suddenly hit quite a bit of turbulence. At this point he went back to the cockpit and I allowed him to save all of our lives without questioning his methods, I mean he IS the pilot.
But now that I am safely back on the ground, I had to take to social media to make others aware of the sheep that are piloting our planes. The FAA funded education, the elitist belief that their experience is more valuable then my internet research. It’s just too much, it must be stopped!
thank you for the inspiration!
