Geez, regular commercial pilots already need ample amount of hours to be a regular passenger jet pilot. Wonder what rating they'll need for these?

Honestly it's for entertainment not education.

That's interesting, there was a decent amount of migrating between places then.

Shouldn't tell them what else happened in WW2 then.

If measuring surface area...

If you're measuring surface area yes.

If you were to look at God's eye view of a 1x1 mile square of land. One flat, one mountainous, the flat would appear bigger.

I gotcha, yeah in the early 2000's a buddy heard tech was the way to go. Come graduation 4 years later the market was filled already with people not only with those degrees but experience. Struggled a few years but is doing fine now.

I'm a little jaded by the American collegiate system, since it's easy to get way into debt for a degree that can be meaningless. There needs to be an actively evolving system of what degrees/skills will be needed in the future and what loans will be paid out for.

I understand some jobs are callings or passions. But you'd think people who are smart enough to get PHDs would do a cost benefit analysis of their education.

Also, I'm not familiar with your R1/R2 terminology.can you explain?

Me remembering my terrible college professors and how they make this kind of money
