Why did a white guy join OBAP? If OBAP is a black pilots association and the airlines are tripping over themselves to get black pilot why do you need an organization that put others ahead of those who aren't members? Is there a secret handshake with the airline recruiters to get people get hired?
Would OBAP be the epitome of black privilege? When all the airlines will interview any minority candidates with less time and experience than the white candidates. Adding another organization to promote their skin pigment just seems elitist and redundant.
I'm about to found WMIA White Men In Aviation so that pilot is welcome to join.
