But you can't just want to be a pilot there is training and experience required
Commercial pilots train as private pilots, which allows them to learn the basics of flying before progressing into more complicated planes and situations. Private pilot training may include instruction from a certified professional and solo flight practice. Prospective commercial pilots must log at least 250 hours of flying time to become licensed

Obviously suicidal and reckless, lashing out and mentally breaking down but not a working class hero to me at least not with that possible endangerment of innocent others by crash or fires created
This incident may put a spotlight on some of the industry if they have gone that low in wage for a mechanic
