Doctors are paid well because their profession requires constant training, has high stress, little room for error, and can involve life or death decisions. Pilots should receive the same respect. A bad doctor could potentially kill one person. A bad pilot could potentially kill 400+.

Jeff, I can't think of a better way to make a living. If I didn't have a family, I would seriously consider flying as a career.
