It's hard to generalize about pilots and private jet passengers, but there is definitely over-representation from the "wealthy and unaccustomed to being told NO" crowd. One of the "5 Hazardous Attitudes" that we all learn is Anti-authority[1]. If you want to live, but don't like people telling you what to do, please do not become a pilot. On the other hand, the Federal Aviation Regulations are vast and detailed, and as pilots, we are forced to become mini-lawyers as a side job so that we can know and understand them all. Go to any online pilot forum, and half the posts are pilots quoting 14 CFR at each other and micro-analyzing each word from the holy text. 1: https://www.faasafety.gov/gslac/ALC/course_content.aspx?cID=723&sID=1448&preview=true https://www.faasafety.gov/gslac/ALC/course_content.aspx?cID=...
