“narcissistic jackass”
You must be describing yourself? The article says no such thing. The qualities attributed apply to most all pilots. So do you just hate pilots?
Well, I just love how hobby pilots argue. "Are you describing yourself?" Oh, such wit, so droll! "I'm rubber, your'e glue, what you say bounces off me and sticks to you."
I'm very familiar with the bad temper a hobby pilot displays whenever one is called on their vanity and recklessness. It is so easy to provoke...
I think flying a poorly-test highly-modified, and very recently modified at that, aircraft over a crowd shows a JERK of the highest order.
