You know that dopamine hit was worth getting by crushed by 5000PSI though

That Ops Safety guy wouldn't be bought and raised a stink and got fired. But at least he doesn't have the blood of those people on his soul. Nor does he have to worried about being sued or put in jail. Did the right thing.

I am not going too far in the air or in the ocean if the craft is being controlled by a $40 XBOX Controller.

At least they put their money where their mouths are/were?

Don't want to hire white guys? Good luck being successful.

Well... hopefully they did at least get to see the Titanic! Adds insult to injury if they never got to the main event.

Another positive to younger, inexperienced hires: you can get away paying them less.

coming to commercial airlines really soon. diversity hires. instead of taking the best white guys to fly you to your destination. they'll hire the stunning and brave disabled tranny who is not instrument qualified to crash you into a mountain during heavy fog.


Before cockpit doors I used to peek inside the cockpit and look inside who the pilots were. I always looked for older gray haired white guys. They made me feel the most comfortable that I was going to safely reach my destination. It's just human nature we profile this stuff.

I don’t know why this dude said this stupid comment. If you go to their website, literally every person in the company is a 50s year old white dude.

The Company Owner's best move now is to just blame Trump for sinking the sub.

Diversity is their strength.


Is this not a potentially huge lawsuit that could lead to the SCOTUS taking parts of the affirmative action laws out of hiring!

I think you are wrong.

Think Hitler brown shirts and SS. Not the smartest people, but ruthless psychopaths.

This is where we’re going.

Tragic. I wonder what their pronouns were.

I’m completely against the woke/affirmative action BS we are seeing these days, but I’ll bet we are going to find out this tragedy was an equipment failure, and no submarine captain could have prevented or mitigated it.
