What the hell’s with this nonsense? There’s an advertisement that APC has allowed, showing a pic of some female FO sitting left seat.. what’s the deal? Could the 99s not find one of there members who was Captain qualified that looked good in a photo?

She is just setting the parking brake, now that she has her double mocha anisette cherry latte, she can scurry back to her side to cop a few 'Z's'.

Also, how many organizations/clubs/support networks do women/minorities, etc need? This is just getting ridiculous. If they’re so good and qualified, why do they need to constantly throw this stuff in everyone’s face?

However many organizations/clubs/networks it takes to stop the minimizing and ridicule on the basis of their gender as seen in your question “if they’re so good” and post 2.

Exactly. Alot of us are tired of the 'girl power' conversation! Just assimilate with the rest of us.

I think they’re making it worse on themselves.. They’re drawing way too much attention. I saw a video yesterday of an Alaska Airlines, all female, all black flight crew. They made it seem like some big deal. How is stuff like this news? The Captain wouldn’t stop making a PA about what a big deal it was. Poor passengers just want to get out on time and here she and her FO are holding up the show blabbing about what a historic event is about to take place.

Like what do these women (man haters) want? Do they expect a free lunch for doing their job? Congratulations, you didn’t crash the jet here’s your free voucher to Taco Bell. Extra congrats for doing it with a non caucasian, here’s a medal and a lifetime supply of tacos. I’m so fed up with all this PC horse****.. I say the hell with all these organizations. The hell with OBAP, the 99’s, WIA, NAACP, and the rest of them.

It is a big deal because it took until 2018 for an all black female crew to happen. That’s a pretty cool milestone, and it should be celebrated
