Amazing, isn't it?

You would think that pilots would have well above average intelligence.


Special skill orientation.

You would further think that they have good enough judgment to let imbeciles
prattle in silence.

I guess the need to weigh in, and prove their intelligence trumps good
judgment.


I hope they sleep like crap knowing that the hundreds they run off, the
potential learning that doesn't occur, the tragedies that /do/ happen
because of wasting this aviation resource, I sure hope that haunts them
for all their days.

Then you obviously don't know much about real airplanes.


Name an aircraft that will be overweight with a full load of fuel even with
only the required pilot(s) aboard.

Why? Flying isn't that difficult. Pilots may tend to be more intelligent
than average, since that is generally true of anyone exercising a skilled
activity. Even high-school graduates are marginally above average in
intelligence. However, there's no reason to believe that pilots are "well
above average."

You would further think that they have good enough judgment to let
imbeciles
prattle in silence.


If that were true, there wouldn't be crashes every day.

judgment.


The need to weigh in does not prove intelligence.


You're a dumb ass, but don't let that stop you from weighing in.

Why? If you can't make fun of the ignorant ass, why answer at all?

Here's a clue or two for you:

What is currently the weight of a FAA standard person, what was it
previously and when did it change last?

Does a pilot fly naked?

Does a pilot need to carry anything with him?

Are all pilots under 5 foot 9 inches tall?

He is well aware that on many 2 and 4 place aircraft you can't fill the
seats with adults and fill the tanks without the W&B being out, so he
phrased his question in such a way that he thinks he will "win" the
discussion.

This is a standard mxmanic deflection tactic.

When his question is viewed in context with what has already been said,
and which he has snipped, his question is basically irrelevant and absurd.
