Unfortunately, your message will be lost on most people when they read this passage. It invokes an image of a hate monger. Women and minorities can and do provide excellent experience levels at numerous FSDOs. Instead, why not focus on the real problem. With the FAA's contrained budget, its employees are overloaded in a mountain of work and the experienced people get fed up and go back to the private sector. I think the OP is complaining that hiring and advancement in the FAA too often are based on things other than experience, ability and performance, and that the FAA, like other government agencies, too often wastes money on things that are not central to its mission. The OP appears to misplace blame for this situation onto women and minorities. In fact, lower technical standards and wasted money are really the symptom, not the cause of the problems there. The real problem is bad management. You are correct sir. While people focus on ignoring the "race" and "sex" the facts and shooting the messenger or labeling them "racist" etc. the facts are this. Most of the management now in the FAA is something other than "hetrosexual white males" The FAA is in crisis precisely for the reason you mention. Loss of mission focus and bad incompetent management. Unfortunately for your argument, it appears that you also are interested in focusing on things other than ability, performance and experience. |
