Witnesses told investigators that they were told what answers to mark in order to pass the test.

The NBCFAE previously lobbied for the biographical test in order to increase diversity among air traffic controllers. The test that was created as a result of these efforts resulted in penalizing individuals with aviation experience,

Win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat.

Jesse Ventura or the Democrat party?

Yeah, that's just what we need. ATCs hired based on diversity and not on qualifications. What could go wrong?

I remember Reagan taking care of the controllers. Trump won't be one-uped. Patience.

Criminal charges need to be brought against the guilty parties.

It is not just this incident. There are several criminal activities performed by government officials who get away with it. Even when they are caught, nothing happens.

Gee, what could possibly go wrong if we hire unqualified air traffic controllers? At least we achieved diversity.

vermin

I am pretty sure there isn't a white whatever association that has systematically gamed the system based on race like this.

Leftists will absolutely put up with whatever halfassed left wing idea one of them comes up with.

It probably won't be YOUR plane that runs into something so what do you care?

absolute lawbreaking filth and we get some lame arse justification for it

How many cases of systemic cheating are you aware of involving whites?

There are multiple cases of organized standardized test cheating involving blacks, such as schools where they were giving kids the answers or altering the kids’ tests after the fact to raise scores.

The word around around the campfire is that the black ATCs were ineffective because they were doing it from their grandma’s house and could not get the antenna turned right.

As much as I dislike Obama this isn’t just his issue. Most of the people responsible for this are still at the highest levels of the DOT. Trump needs to clean house over there for several reasons but this is the most glaring reason. There are a ton of well qualified candidates/past controllers that didn’t make it into training and also lost their jobs while less qualified minority’s candidates just strolled in. It’s a hazardous situation that puts the air traffic situation in peril and as a pilot it pisses me off and also explains some of the stupidity I deal with.
