Default Making Aviation Great Again

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2...n-great-again/

IAH’s very own, the anti-vax, “don’t make me fly a plane with gay koalas on it,” hardcore ultra-MAGA, SW is sharing her vast knowledge and expertise. She is not helping the profession with her rhetoric and jumping on the DEI blaming bandwagon regarding last weeks accident. It’s a bit funny that she fails to mention her nefarious record in the many accolades that are included about her at the end of the article. While she does have certain valid points, she is doing more harm than good with this article.

“I applaud Trump and his cabinet team as they lead us through this terrible time with somber professionalism. The 67 souls lost in the Potomac crash last week must not have died in vain. Our industry must take bold action to implement policies that will ensure that safety, not social justice, is our guiding star. I am confident that the Trump administration will act on these, and other critical safety issues, in the coming weeks so that we can Make Aviation Great Again!”

I'm waiting for the "67 for 67" mantra floated from that ilk

some irony to her stance on DEI and mental health.

From a qualifications standpoint, United easily hires the best candidates. Worlds largest airline, most widebodies, good work culture/environments, great training programs. Let's hope we see some merit-based hiring in the new administration now. And please no more rocket explosions over commercial airspace.

Really?

1) New hires recently FORCED into left seat a dreadful plane (737) with less than 2k hours cause of how bad junior NB life is
2) Only “worlds” biggest by a few mainline A/C, but DL/AA have UA beat in aircraft owned + way less debt at DL
3) Versus DL all work groups are unionized & UA FA’s living on food stamps and are in a frenzy
4) UA TK has 20 year old CFI’s in Aviate teaching systems to upgrades & new hires
5) The few extra WB’s UA has more than AA/DL are consolidated in unlivable cities like SFO/EWR that people are leaving; enjoy the commute w/ no bookable JS
6) UA still can’t seem to beat DL in profitability/awards/metrics despite massive Crowdstrike handicap

From one kool-aid drinker to another. I salute you

I wasn't even thinking about you, but true to form I think you want to hear that Delta is better. Cheers to my fellow cool-aider!😊

I'm trying to remember the last time I read so many factual inaccuracies, misrepresentations, errors of sense, and non sequiturs in one article... Nevermind the downright crazy...
