That’s because female and minority pilots — many of whom entered the industry amid a drive toward diversity among pilots — were responsible for half of pilot-error crashes.
Despite making up 10 percent of pilots, they were responsible for four out of eight such crashes since 2000.
I have a daughter that wants to be a pilot. She is still young, but well on her way to getting all the training. It'll be a decade until she can work for the airlines though. Hopefully by then, the DEI stuff will be gone. She will be completely trained and safe, I'm sure, however I would hate to have her go through her career always wondering if she was the token woman. She wants to earn her positions too, not have them handed to her. I promise, if she flies you in 10 or 15 years, you can be assured she is a good pilot! We are putting a lot of our finances, time and energy into assuring she is!!!
She should pre-think every emergency, including highly unusual ones. Think it, do it. Think it, say it. No pause, no second guessing. Typical female pilot problems: decision making, second guessing, interactions between aircraft malfunctions and forgetting about everyone else in the air. Train that out of her in everyday life. I had two women almost kill me in pilot training. Another problem is with the instructors that pass a female when they shouldn’t. Maintenance and death to follow.
HA! Makes me laugh because she loves to watch those investigation shows into how and why planes crashed. She also is going to take 3 years of aircraft maintenance before she graduates high school (homeschool for the win!), because even if she isn't an aircraft mechanic, she will be able to look at the plane after it's been worked on to make sure it's been done right.. I will save the problems you listed and share it with her, to make sure we work to overcome any of them! Thank you for sharing!
That is brilliant.!! And when she does start flying: conflicts will usually come from 45 degrees left or right. And most of all: relax and enjoy. When she eventually goes for an airline interview, be nice to everyone: the driver, the secretary, everyone. They are all evaluating her, because nobody wants to fly hours and hours with a jerk.
I asked the commie-AI, “Did orville and wilbur wright's ancestors own slaves?”
Based on available historical information, Orville and Wilbur Wright’s immediate ancestors did not own slaves.
Abolitionist Background: The Wright brothers' father, Bishop Milton Wright, was a prominent minister in the United Brethren Church in Christ, which was known for its strong moral values, including advocating for women's rights and opposing slavery.
Family Values: The family held strong anti-slavery views, and there is no evidence in historical records or accounts of their ancestry to suggest they owned slaves.
The family lived in the Midwest (Ohio/Indiana), and their ancestral history is not connected to the Southern plantation system or the enslavement of people.”
There are no historical racial injustices that need to be repaired. Affirmative action in aviation is just an envious and spiteful attempt to block white men from the innovations of their own kind.
You know what lacks diversity. Survival shows. Not one DEI, on the entire show. Their are women but no one is a different ethnicity. No one. Watched, grown men climb a mountain, not a single person was any other color other than white. Talk about racist.

Yes. Our lives are risked so that a narrative can live on.....
Totally worth it. 👌
That’s been American politics in a nutshell for the last 75 years
Sacrifice lives to avoid dealing with uncomfortable truths that run contrary to preferred narratives.
If true....shouldn't even BE a "question"
But think of the feelings!!!!! Is you and your family's safety really more important that having an under qualified female or black pilot?!
If I'm about to board and see this:

Not a chance in hell am I getting on that plane knowing this is DEI and not experience! "Oh, but that's racist!", yup!! I couldn't care less!
Two people I knew were making bank finding DEI pilot candidates. One was DEI themselves. Both have lost their job over the past couple of years.

Being a good pilot starts with wanting to be a good pilot. Your daughter should be a great one.
There is the primary reason I will never fly. DEI for crew and being treated like cattle. Absolutely not worth it.
Once on a flight I saw we had a lady pilot and I thought wow that's cool. Of course I didn't actually SEE her fly - I changed flights.

People should be able to ask who their pilot is, their actual sex and their years of experience. I would never want a female pilot, personally.
