I flew United in the second week of January and it was a disaster. United is a garbage airline.

When the plane goes down, you can take comfort that at least the flight crew was diverse.

United’s CEO is a drag queen. They put color, sex, and queer factor over meritorious qualifications. I certainly will not patronize United Airlines. If they wanted a pro-faggot airline, they should resurrect TWA. (Trans World Airways).

My son is a pilot and works for a privately own company with a fleet of jets…because of what’s happening with commercial airlines. He says “dad, a lot of these pilots and maintenance guys are not qualified”.

Thanks, I’ll drive.

When my brother left the Air Force, he applied to almost every US carrier. The only one to not call him back was United. That was in the 90s. Even then, United was pushing AA. After he told me that, I boarded a United flight in Chicago and there were two young ladies in the cockpit. I no go, you know.

I’ve posted about this before. A client/friend is a pilot at United. He warned me about this last year. He said due to the unqualified hires, it’s not if but when a major incident will occur.

Men are physically different from women in ways that matter for many reasons, not the least of which are occupations and war fighting. I hope this isn’t the slightest bit controversial here at FR.

Men are also mentally different from women.

Men score significantly higher than women on spatial relations tests. Funny, this matters when you’re piloting huge tubes of aluminum full of people and goods through the air around the planet. Especially if your highest goal is to not have them intersect, and take off and land and taxi safely.

We should expect to find significantly more men in pilot and ATC roles for this reason. That idiots are trying to force outcomes not based on skills and merit will result in failures to meet those goals, with tragic results.

Leftists destroy everything they touch.

I will not fly United. I will look for an airline that puts competence first.

I saw this cartoon this morning, and it saddened me, because it highlights in cartoon form one of the singularly most destructive and corrosive aspects of DEI and Affirmative Action:

The fact that DEI has a negative impact on someone who, regardless of their skin color, may be completely competent and expert in their field, can be viewed as a potential liability simply based on the color of their skin, because it cannot be ascertained that they go to where they are on merit alone.

Don’t worry, everything will be just fine as soon as the plane takes off, I promise you the plane will land.

I’m making the choice easy for myself and not flying ANY airline.

Will there be more or fewer major airline crashes in 2024 than there were in 2014, 2004, 1994, or 1984?

You’re worse off in a car and the diversity in drivers would make you want to hide under your bed.

Okay, so maybe you’ll die before you reach your destination, but at least there’ll be Bud Light on the beverage cart.
