When I
grow up I want to be a pilot because it's a fun job and easy to do. That's
why there are so many pilots flying around these days.
Pilots
don't need much school. They just have to learn to read numbers so they can
read their instruments.
I guess
they should be able to read a road map, too.
Pilots
should be brave so they won't get scared if it's foggy and they can't see,
or if a wing or motor falls off.
Pilots
have to have good eyes to see through the clouds, and they can't be afraid
of thunder or lightning because they are much closer to them than we are.
The
salary pilots make is another thing I like. They make more money than they
know what to do with. This is because most people think that flying a plane
is dangerous, except pilots don't because they know how easy it is.
I hope
I don't get airsick because I get carsick and if I get airsick, I couldn't
be a pilot and then I would have to go to work.
