No. I will respect your posts but not your observations. Maybe if you pull some of these females or minority pilots aside you’ll simply find they worked twice as hard as other interview invites to get there as the deck was stacked against them. Reference the attitudes on this thread.

But, if you failed to dig deeper, I can see where you would make this conclusions.

I'm sure gender nor the fact they were family had anything to do with getting hired by Delta...

And the fact this makes news.... Even sadder.

Exactly the type of uneducated response I was expecting. Continue to live your life through rumors and conjecture.

Why is it that the tough guys are always the weakest pilots?

50% of the workforce should be female and it’s not.

This was an excellent story and great promotion of the Delta brand. They have the most incredible aviation family I've ever heard of. FO is married to a Delta pilot and her sister is a Delta pilot. All three went to the regionals, built their time, upgraded, hired at 25 or under at Delta and will retire in top 10. Mom obviously a Delta pilot and Dad is a WB Capt at AA I think. Very accomplished family and best wishes to all of them

I was the first person hired by Delta post 2001. White dude. No females interviewed that first day either. There was 1 the next. That doesn’t bode well for your assertion.
