NICE FIRST POST!

I simply said Air India’s standard is not the standard United should be shooting for, or do you disagree?! I made no reference of race or gender.... you took it there. Again not the standard we should be shooting for!

So you're making a "safety connection" between male and female crews? What was the gender of the mechanic who signed it off? What was the gender of the dispatcher who planned the flight?

Gender is neither a qualification for, nor a disqualification for pilot positions. The whole thing should be gender neutral. Another words, that's not a factor.

Air india and the other indian airlines are both doing it wrong, and in a different position. You've got to look at the poverty levels, poverty locations, and education rates in the country. In many cases India mistreats females badly. Their safety situation, sex-abuse, etc., is horriffic. If ladies want to stay safe, they need to get drivers, and live in a secure facility there. It is great that ladies in India are improving their entire professional skill set.

Seriously, you don't want folks to start posting all the negative events whereby a female Pilot screwed up bad. Those events would only take the conversation into the gutter. Your two events you posted about are statistically irrelevant.

I think you are dedicating too much towards this troll on his first post. When one thinks saying United shouldn't aspire to the standards of Air India implies racism or misogyny this is not a serious, rational person!

i guarantee you the number of negative events where males screwed up bad far outnumbers those done by females.

Of course there is since there are far more males than females in this line of work. To determine if there is a correlation you’d have to look at it from a per capita basis.

Appears statistics isn’t taught in school anymore. Not that it should be needed, this is pure common sense.

More males have gotten tickets from the game warden than females for "over the quantity limit" on trout and "under the size limit on redfish." It's like 4000 to 1.

Discuss....
