how come? Requires a LOT of flying hours and some luck to get a job at a big airline company. Many days spent away from family. Responsible for 100+ lives every time they fly. If there’s a problem mid flight (rare but happens), it can be extremely stressful and 100’s of lives can be at stake. Think on-call at a tech company is stressful? I’m glad I don’t that have THAT kind of on-call lol. And obviously the fact that learning to fly a plane is not an easy skill to learn…
