That's the game they have chosen. If you are going to hire based on characteristics instead of competency as a factor then the assumption will be those characteristics have greater importance. Certainly the messaging coming from those Departments for the last several years has only emphasized that. It does screw over people that truly are good enough on their own but that's why it needs to change. I rarely see people that benefit from DEI policies declining to identify themselves in ways that don't advantage them even if they are competent.CanyonAg77 said:bulls**tQuote:

Not really. DEI means that someone is hired or given advantages based on something other than merit alone. Simply on physical qualifications alone there are very, very few women that can meet the same standards as men and physical qualifications definitely matter when you are talking about being a helicopter pilot which is a physically and mentally demanding job.HTownAg98 said:aggie93 said:A lot of things will continue to come out on this but that would still make it was a female pilot which would still be DEI.Charpie said:And the bolded part has already been debunkedaggie93 said:Except it appears the pilot was a Trans and the ATC Tower was understaffed in part because they have been pushing for DEI hires.

Seems like you're going to be working overtime to round off the corners of that square peg to fit it into the round hole of DEI, no matter how much time it takes.

Point is they're NOT gonna remain on THAT flight! Or at least that's the implication.
Why would I assume that? It's just as likely they picked a white, male lib who would go along with the agenda.TAMUallen said:

Yes, it is a huge issue and has brought us to the current state. Sad for those who actually earned their status by their ability and merit but that's the very reason DEI must DIE
I don't care if you are tired.

It's a lot more than hydraulically boosted controls. One of my best friends is a helicopter pilot. Dude looks like he could be a SEAL. Even he comes home exhausted from the physical and mental strain of flying. Helicopters are not airplanes either, they are far more complicated and require far more physical strength and coordination to control.CanyonAg77 said:Ever hear of hydraulically boosted controls?Quote:

Logical people do know that though since there are two standards. One is higher and one is lower. Before then, the standard had been high for all for the same position.

Why did the FFA say during recruitment that the most qualified were too white and there were too many men. It was the FFA that said they needed to diversify. Who is looking at race and sex? Are they looking for the most qualified or trying to check boxes? You want that when you're flying or getting an operation? People want the most qualified. Period. I want to arrive at my destination alive. I want to walk out of the hospital alive.
My dad was a helicopter pilot for more than 30 years. He was a high school athlete and had great hand-eye coordination, but for most of his career didn't do much more than jog in the evenings to work out. His last 10 or so years was demanding flying with the Department of Energy, so it isn't like he was coasting.aggie93 said:It's a lot more than hydraulically boosted controls.

As for the policies they chose to make it so that people of different sexes and races get advantages. Burden of proof is thus on people of those sexes and races who are in those roles to show they were hired based on merit. Can't have it both ways

Watch these two pilots!Stat Monitor Repairman said:
All joking aside, had the opportunity to fly out of Oslo a few years ago on SAS. They proudly made an announcement that it was a full DEI aircrew.
Gave me some pause, but I gave 'em the benefit of the doubt to see how they do. Proof is in the pudding.
The taxiing was a little herky-jerky and landing a little hard with a double bounce but they got it done and I'm still here.
Point is you could kinda tell.
Even if they hadn't said something in advance I would have peeked in the cockpit on deplane just to check.
Anyway, just a little story on this Friday afternoon.

That is totally irresponsible.
