What hole? Please let me know what I've said that you disagree with.

Her flying experience seems pretty solid. Her landing experience, well, not so much.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld bit at the rental counter when they didn't have a vehicle for him and he's like "anybody can TAKE a reservation but it's the HOLDING of the reservation that's the most important part of the reservation."

Other than that she's a woman, there's no evidence she was a DEI hire

I think the upside down plane could be considered evidence.

LoL. That whole landing thing. It's kind of important.

You don't sound very good at your job, if the username fits

Keep posting. We're all laughing at you.

He was going to change it to PlaneCrashWoman but it was already taken.

Look, you can carry the water bucket for DEI all you want, but everyone knows what's going on here.

Go woke, go crash. Also, go broke still applies once all the lawsuits are settled.

So concerned...and in such moderation.

"ComingInHawt" looks to be taken too. Dang

With each passing year and the lengths that DEI has infiltrated everything...it makes me more sympathetic to the firefighter dad in American History X

Might have 300 hours in flying turbines but looks like could have used a little more time landing turbines

No kidding. And therein lies the rub.

Simulators today are so realistic that you get type rated without ever flying the actual airplane.

I can remember years ago when we got upgraded 727 sims and the company discontinued training flights (where you would take pilots who had completed sim training and go to Montgomery or someplace else and do touch and go's for 3+ hours.)

We were having some difficulty getting pilots qualified in line ops because they couldn't land the airplane safely.

It comes time for a line check meeting and during a Q/A with the VP of Flight Ops, I asked if there was any chance of getting trainers back on the 727. The answer was no. Never again. I responded a little mutedly, I guess we're still flying trainers. We're just carrying passengers on them now.

Didn't go over well.

Other than the heavy advertising by her employer that they engage in such a thing

---

So no evidence?

---

Keep digging. Fun to watch libs look stupid

---

I'm not a lib. Right now there is no evidence whatsoever that she was a DEI hire. That's a fact.

---

The company has a DEI agenda. Obvious evidence for this.
The woman pilot was relatively new to these jets. Evidence of this has been presented.
The plane crashed upon a very hard landing. It's hard to deny this evidence but I wouldn't put it past you.

That's what evidence looks like. Is it conclusive evidence that DEI was a factor in this crash? No. Not yet.

But is there strong evidence that this airline has discriminatory DEI policies? Yep. They should be grounded until they prove that such policies have ended and that they aren't endangering the public with their current workforce. And that goes whether this woman's inexperience and performance was an issue or not.

You're whiteknighting for a woman who quite literally just proved she had no business at the controls of an airplane with other people aboard. She landed with the wrong side of the plane on the ground.

For ****'s sake, stop defending her.

Would you put your family on a plane that Kendal Swanson is piloting?

Saw an X post where the pilots on a plane both announced they were ex military and passengers applauded. They were just happy to know their pilots were competent.

Here is an accurate summary of what we know

GAC got dog piled because he idiotically claimed there was no evidence she was a DEI hire.

From my experience, taking off and flying level is the easy part. Landing, on the other hand, takes practice.
The pilots came in "hot", the landing gear collapse, the wing came off and the plane flipped over. Sounds like a rookie mistake.
