Come on now all you white homeboys, get your Blackface on, and come on down for that airline pilot career day!

I remember those days in the late 1970's when United hired woman and minorities with just a Commercial Pilot Certificate with Instrument Rating, 350 hours total time and a high school diploma.

All brought to you by the US government's EEOC, in a federal lawsuit brought on by a black male applicant who was not hired.

Of course the white male still needed an ATP certificate, 1500 hours plus, and a college degree.

39 years later it still exists!
