Flyguy23 said “. If women make up 5% of applicants, but 50% of new hires, youre just taking anyone that comes along qualifications be damned.

This is the issue in a nutshell. The numbers don’t add up, If United’s goal is to hire 50% minorities and women, they will undoubtably hire some less than qualified pilots if their representation is such a low percentage of the pilot pool. BTW, United did this back in the late 80’s too after they lost a lawsuit.
