Private pilot, instrument rated here ;). I fly a G5 SR22 Turbo, which is state of the art for GA piston aviation, or as the rest of the calls it, state of the are for 1982. No autothrottle, no FADEC, and that plane new costs close to $1 mil

One of my best CFIs is a Director of Hardware at a startup in the Bay, so that's music to my ears. I have an IPC coming up, if he can't make it, and you're a CFII, and in the Bay Area, I might want to look you up. Anyway to

Not relative to their responsibilities. The US federal government takes in about $3.5T per year and employs about 2m people. Private sector executives routinely get 8 and 9 figure comp for running organizations 1/10th or even 1/
