Outstanding advice! I'm going to share this with my students. In the Army, we have the value of 'Selfless Service'. Servant leadership and humility are KEY both in the cockpit and the work/social environment. Be humble, and OTHER people will brag for you. It's even key for Crew Resource Management and ADM. Like the blue angels say in their debriefs... "Happy to be here boss." Even the LEAD. Thanks for this!

Well said @ronsflightsimlab9512! I remember as a young ROTC cadet attending Airborne school seeing a newly minted 2LT helping a PFC shine his boots before formation one morning. It left a permanent mark on my memory of what to be...

Long time Airline Pilot here. Your recommendations are spot on. We are all qualified or we wouldn’t be here. We need to work together as a team. We need to contribute and take criticism in order to grow. At the major airlines, after the probationary period, Pilots are almost never fired for lack of competency, they are fired for their personalities. Being a pain in everyone’s ass and the company building a large file of incidents that you caused, will eventually get you hated by all and eventually fired. In my opinion, the two worst traits in my flying partner are arrogance and incompetence.
