“aircraft are very unforgiving///you need the very best”
Well, I know there’s currently plenty of Muslims in our country taking flight lessons...
Sure go ahead, let a less qualified affirmative action candidate fly a $100M plane into the ground. Why not?
I am going on an old memory. Wasn’t there a Black member of the Thunderbirds who had the gumption to take himself out of the group? He did not think his flying skills were up to the job?
Fire this SOB commander who’s “”short”” on sense ...... you form that team with the BEST not to please some pandering polidiot who wants to promote an agenda with bell curves turned into lines, loops, rolls, spins, and hammerheads.......
Damn ....
We’ll put the basketball players in the jets and the pilots on the court and if the pilots can’t play, disappear them. If the players can’t fly, that’s due to white privilege, promote them.
The T Birds will never be right until one of the pilots has Downs Syndrome.
Whatever happened to “striving for excellence” in the USA? We have turned into a less than mediocre nation. Considering what has been done with all the blessings and freedoms we have received from the Lord, I don’t know how much more He is going to allow. “When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.” Luke 21:28
Brig. Gen. Chris Short
IOW, forget about applying if you are a white male.
zactly!
Mothers too female!
Because that’s whats important
Not that whole precision flying thingy
Get rid of this PC “General”.
Brig. Gen. Christopher M. Short should just pick some gay Negro women and order ‘em into the cockpit of half the birds, then order a full blown show over the downtown of a major American liberal city, and sit back in the grandstand to rake in the congratulations.
He seems to have a pecunary interest in the matter..
Gay.
That episode involved the Blues - a naval aviator who happened to be black was slotted as CO and, greatly to his credit, took himself out of the position due to his own view that his flying skills were not up to his duties. It was a good call and, IIRCC, carried out in a mature and professional manner in the best traditions of the naval services.
I hope the general needs an ambulance post haste someday, but the ambulance company is run like the DMV, with all the diversity and indolence we expect from the DMV.
He can die satisfied and content in the knowledge that the incompetent dullards that let him die “didn’t look like (him)”.
Not guilty anyway.
