How is all of this not blatant discrimination, they are opting to give preference to someone based on race, or sex. It really is as simple as that. If a lawsuit were filed how could this not be an open and shut case in 2 minutes?? It’s not anyone’s fault that this has primarily been a white male dominated industry. For the record, I do not oppose hiring of any individual group, but I do when it becomes at the expense of someone obviously more qualified based on their merit or experience.

I have a problem with putting women and minorities in the position where their hard work, dedication and grit to succeed gets questioned on account of their skin color or sex.
I also have a problem with using skin color and sex as being any kind of a factor in hiring, especially for a safety-sensitive position. If you can’t see just how detrimental that is, or if you’re unable to differentiate between helping and coaching minorities and women to become competitive and establishing quotas.... I can’t help you.

[QUOTE=SonicCarhop;3218406]The Aviate program is not a guaranteed job at United. It's a defined pathway that, should you complete the entire path, will get you priority for a job at United.

It discrimination. We used to say it was immoral but now we're more interested in its pros and cons and the best way to implement it.

It seems we finally found the one topic that can fill 14 APC pages with zero thread drift- a nominal challenge to the prevalence of white men in aviation. Go figure.

[QUOTE=Bestglide;3218423]
What he also fails to recognize is that this practice, evidenced by some universities have really only set some people up to fail. Initial selection could potentially include individuals that are not ready for the rigorous effort and time necessary for aviation training but are rather simply driven by the "idea" of being a pilot. An awarness campain would be more effective than a virtue signaling diversity campain. Then we can blindly have the best complete training and not washout.
