As a small-plane pilot, I keep up on aviation news, subscribing to multiple magazines, websites and podcasts devoted to flying. So it is a measure of just how hard the Obama admin worked to hide this outrageous story from the public that I had never heard about it until Tucker Carlson brought it to light this evening.
Turns out, diversity activists during the Obama era decided that there wasn’t enough diversity among air traffic controllers. So, without a vote, the Obama FAA scrapped its merit-based rules and replaced them with a system contrived to benefit “diverse” applicants.
As Tucker explained it, and as hard as this is to believe, the system awards big bonus points to applicants who describe themselves as bad at science, and unemployed. Applicants who are very familiar with air traffic control or are pilots get relatively few bonus points.

Another reason not to fly or live under a flight path.
Same here.
I had forgotten that episode.
You’re right about shows like WKRP. It would never be made these days.
Oh, I don’t like the sound of this.
Hopefully, PDJT can undo this Hussein rule.
Thanks. Somehow I hadn’t heard about this previously, despite being an avid follower of aviation news.
I was so appalled by this this situation, when I first read about it several years ago, it stuck in my head.
You married well.
You married well.
Years ago blacks accused white educators of race norming IQ tests. It was NOT true... but all test questions were checked to make sure they 'race neutral'..
What's disgusting here is that blacks are doing this INTENTIONALLY...giving themselves an unfair advantage over every other racial group in the United States. That's against the law.
This choice reflects the shameful underbelly of black culture... pity-party based criminality.
The FAA should be sued for racism... intentionally rigging the system against Asians, whites, Indians, Europeans... etc etc etc. Take it to the Supreme Court... destroy this twisted abomination and take a look at every other Federal Agency to see if this filth has invaded other federal programs.
All questions must be race neutral... Period.
This sounds worse than it actually is.
They WILL NOT certify.
Impossible
There is a certain standard required to certify and become an FPL(Full Performance Level) ATC.
Sure they might get more points initially but they will be weeded out.
The comment, “What could go wrong?” applies here ...
Bol! Yes, exactly. What a hilarious movie. Someone should tell Obama it was more along the lines of a cautionary tale than a how-to guide.
