there's a bunch of frothingfash accounts in the twitter comments about "DEI hires in the cockpit" so your list sounds about right, add on women and neurodivergent people

What the did these nincompoops blame plane crashes on before the "DEI" boogeyman came along?

[–] crime@hexbear.net 32 points 1 week ago (1 children)

primarily muslims and jews, with an extra dash of us-foreign-policy thrown in for flavor

I recall this German pilot from years back who flew a crowded plane into the side of a mountain in an act of suicide and people began theorizing he'd converted to Islam, lol

I am hearing that as he tipped the nose of the plane down the pilot received the light of Islam and unhesitatingly recited the Shahada. Even now he looks down on the Ummah from the gardens of Jannah. Truly there is no god but Allah, and Mohammad is his prophet!

Nah, I'm neurodivergeant and I can be trusted to fly our troops around. Just get me high up enough first.

doesn't the FAA explicitly forbid pilots from getting diagnosed with or medicated for stuff? so there's an assload of pilots that are just rawdogging ADHD, OCD, depression, anxiety, and such 24/7

[–] REgon@hexbear.net 20 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Same goes for sailors! Or kind of. You need a "valid medical certificate" and up to 2023 ANY mental diagnoses would bar you. After 2023 you might get an approval if you have ADHD, though it's up to the individual doctor and good luck if you're on any meds.

Why? Well think about it! Would you rather have your supertanker carrying megadeathpollutoroil to be handled by a depressed man in treatment, or someone who doesn't know what's wrong with them and self-medicates with alcohol?

one of those is woke and the other is extremely traditional, so you know how this works out :)
