I only fly myself and my family. We eschew the airlines. I shouldered the expense of getting my license and ratings back in the late 70's. The only expense I didn't have was that I inherited my plane. So I have better than 1500 hours total time.
But I am not a professional pilot. I am licensed as a Commercial Pilot, Instrument, Airplane Multi/Single engine land with King Air 200 and B-25 Type Ratings.
And I agree with the emergency type situations. People will not know how they will react until it happens to them.
