IF only it were true.
When this profession starts to hold itself to better standards, I will agree. As it is, remember that within our so-called "professional" ranks, we have more than a few who are essentially teenagers flying around in regional jets, and going from flight school to FO at 600 hours.
The job has been permanently diluted by trainees masquerading as airline pilots.
As a profession, we have done NOTHING to weed out those who are helping bring down pay, QOL, and the public perception of our profession. Before long, the public will finally view us as bus drivers and it will have been our own doing.
410-it, dude.
