I'm bordering on looking silly continuing this with a dancing fool like you,
but what the hell. If you will s-l-o-w-l-y re-read Capt. Boser's
statement above, you may begin to understand it. Since you have a problem
understanding it, try reading it five or six, or sixty, times, if it takes
that much to sink in. His is not an anecdotal observation, but a statement
on things like incompetent women and minorities being hired to meet IMPOSED
QUOTAS on airlines. But of course, you claimed that there were no such
quotas. You also still can't tell the difference between PROOF (which I have
not claimed to offer, for reasons previously stated) and compelling evidence,
of which there is plenty. Are you a troll just pretending to be an
aviation professional. If the name you use is indeed your real name,
then I suspect part of your dancing around on this is due to FEAR of
being honest. But maybe you're just stupid, which is becoming more
apparent, to me anyway.

And, despite the old advice to fighter pilots not to wrestle with the
pigs because, "the pig always wins, you both get muddy, and no one
cares about the outcome" I'll leap once more into this and note that
Capt Boser's comments are indeed anecdotal. They may reflect a policy
of his company and he describes a particular manifestation of the
policy.

More important to the discussion is the fact that "quotas" have been
held unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. The airline that Capt B
works for may feel that they need to support an arbitrary quota to
avoid federal EEOC scrutiny, but it ain't federal law.

And, more importantly, as I've pointed out a couple of times, in the
military aviation community the chicks are holding their own quite
well. And that is saying a lot because the company is rough and the
competition is brutal.

And, yes, that is my name and www.thunderchief.org is my site.
