As long as they meet the skills requirements and have the flight hours... I couldn't care less about race. If United wants to diversify... great... as long as they don't change their skill requirements.
You know - they really didn't have to make a big deal out of this to hire black and women pilots... they could have just done it in the normal acquisition of talent and follow their normal protocol.
But now that they have made this public, don't let there be an accident with an all black/women crew - because people will point back to this and say they hired inferior talent to satisfy the woke quota... which would not be fair to the flight crew if they were indeed qualified.
They made it public intentionally. Think about it!

One effective way to attract talent is to announce you're looking to hire talent. Over time, this could lead to more women and other minorities training to be pilots.
No they aren't. Contrary to what you might believe, you can be of any race and with merit. You still need to pass flight school and hours.
that's not what I believe, it's what you wish I believe.
do you honestly think they won't ease up on their guidelines in order to virtue-signal over fulfilling the self imposed goals they've already trumpeted about?
Oh definitely race. For instance, if whitey, who had been flying airliners for the past thirty years with not a single mishap, and a black person, who has only been flying paper airplanes for the past few days, applied for the airliner pilot job, to keep it fair, we must go with the black person.
Luckily, I have no need to fly. Haven't been on a commercial aircraft since before the SS took over. I think it was 2001, maybe? No plans to ever fly again, so actually, I don't care. Make your own bed and sleep in it. Base everything on race, if that's what gets you breathing heavy.

Of course they would. What a silly question. Don't fool yourself into thinking otherwise. It's done in every industry, critical or not.

∆ the leftist 'woke' agenda in a nutshell.

if they insisted that 50% of their pilots had to be conservative, would you suspect that some might be unqualified?
