Not sure why this got downvoted because it’s true. All these participation trophies, pass them to get along and dumbing down requirements is going to come back to haunt us eventually.

Not sure why people are hating on this post. Lowering standards has already caused a crash in the US (Atlas Air 3591) and will cause another one in the future. People are lucky it didn’t last night.

i agree with you for sure, but the suspect here was a forty something white male - pretty much the prototypical airline pilot. wouldnt be surprised if he was a veteran or something too. i doubt this is ideologically driven and i doubt he is someone who benefitted from being "passed along" - dude probably had a mental breakdown or something.
but yes - as the years go by, we will continue to see more and more of a breakdown in the infrastructure of the country (and the west in general). complex systems cannot and will not survive the woke left.

what I meant by that is there are no longer stringent psych, background, and experience requirements for civilian pilots, if you are gay, lesbian, trans, or a minority, and can pass a piss test you will be hired, it’s the perfect storm to create an “air force” of 9/11 flight crews

The medical field is about to be wrecked once a lot of the older physicians retire. There are a lot of morons graduating from medical schools that have no business being doctors.

It already has bit us in the arse. Read up on the Atlas 767 crash near Houston.

What does attempted pilot suicide of a white male pilot that’s 44 years old have to do with the woke movement?

What ever came from the investigation of Atlas Air 3591?

Swept under the rug because it was caused by a pilot who was a minority who never should have been a pilot.

Calloway was black and tried to play the race card, common sense prevailed, then, I have my doubts if it would today

777 made a valid point about psyche evals and personality tests and shite like that that have been used historically to weed out the nutcases. a lot of that more subjective testing has been eliminated because it was weeding out the minorities. that could and would obviously result in some crazy white guys getting through too.
but, in the face of it, this just seems like a one-off

why do those things exist (I assume they are used when engines are on fire maybe?) and why aren't they a little less accessible?
My guess is because the crew needs access to them in case the engines are on fire, but I'm no pilot.
