Thanks for the info. I was looking at the WIA and OBAP websites, I'm unwilling to support organizations that look to "empower" based on race or gender... this is not something I can support, especially since said peoples seem to have considerable pro-hiring bias in the industry already and benefit from legal discrimination. We're all humans and all have our defects...to prefer pilots based on pre-determined genetics seems horrific, especially considering the safety sensitive nature of our job functions.

Hopefully United will attend a FAPA or AeroCrewSolutions conference sometime soon. In the meantime, I'll wait my turn...
