Is it OK for the FAA or Airlines to pass over
white males for black females so the diversity numbers look better?

Just curious how airline and private pilots felt about safety
positions being filled by unsafe and/or unqualified (Other than White
Male)
employees?


I was once asked if I minded flying with a black co-pilot on a charter.
I think my answer was something like...
"I don't really give a **** if he's purple as long as he can fly"

Hope this answers your question.




This guy is an asshole, no question about it. Nevertheless, affirmative
action has forced a lowering of standards for controller certification.




Why is he an asshole for asking a legtimate air safety question?
