Exactly. This has been an unprecedented hiring environment, nobody has a sim check, and a friggin' kumquat can pass today's AQP training environment. Hopefully things will get a bit better now that the hiring is tightening up some.

I would like to see them come back to doing simulator evals during the interview. I feel like they were able to weed out a lot of people who struggle with basic instrument flying when they all did that.

They can’t hit the diversity numbers with a sim eval. It’s all about TMAAT, and it better be in the STARR or whatever the new format is. Hahahaha, sim eval….Its how you tell a good story my boy. A great story shows a 1k loss to a stupid interview prep company.

Yes. The divisiveness of DEI is purely from the media outrage machine.

Tell me: how many people have died at the hands of DEI pilots? What about white men?

Most of the regionals has a sim ride until around 2018. It's not about diversity. It's purely because mainline did not prepare for the retirement boom.

A hard push for DEI is kinda a new thing. Don’t worry, DEI will run up the numbers.

it won't. And you won't admit it even when it doesn't.

Y correct me if I am wrong... You claim that the reason for US carriers hiring a certain group is due to DEI... Correct? And it's only low time pilots are the cause of poor judgements and or skills... correct?

That's not how statistics work.

If the FAA ever actually did allow a deep dive into the statistics all hell would break loose.

Heck, look at the NTSB changing "She" to "The FO" and finally "He" on the United 767 IOE crumple.
