That the FAA is hiring unqualified minorities is not what I'm disputing.
What I'm disputing is that many here pre-judge minorities to be incompetent
while over-looking the fact that there are any number of incompetent white
males in government already. The FAA is hiring incompetence no matter the
color.


This is true for all government agencies however, in my husband's case, minorities are the preferred hire.
Unfortunately, the government doesn't have incentives or salaries that lure highly qualified engineers of any color or
gender. In many cases, private enterprise gets the cream of the crop and the government gets the duds.

Why harp on the fact that they are minorities when incompetence comes
in all colors?


True again. However, an incompent white male can be fired. An incompent minority employee can not. To work around this
issue, the incompent one is usually promoted out of the area. Most are sent to Washington, D.C.

D. (Where is the key that opens eyes?)


Our eyes are open. My husband would love to work in an environment where the job can be done correctly by workers who
have some pride in their performance regardless of their color, sex, religion or natural origin. He wouldn't care if
they were purple people eaters as long as they did their jobs.

Now, if only our government could follow their own policies and hire folks regardless of "race, color, national
origin, sex, religion, age, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, and marital or family status."

The weather looks great this weekend, and my little airplane and I are attending a local fly-in. Lester (my 8E)
doesn't know my gender or race, nor does he care. He will try to test me on landing. It will be my skill (if
available) not my color or gender that will save the day!
