Comedian Rob Schneider called out United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby in a recent X post, accusing the CEO of pushing diversity in his company at the expense of safety.
Well United safety ratings have dropped since launching dei. It’s possibly they are not related but I think they should focus on safety as they are dropping.
Did you read below as to why there isn’t diversity in pilots? It sounds like that is where United could make a difference but they don’t.
I wa shocked. I assumed most pilots came from the military. Most come from self training. That means low people struggle to become pilots. Many black people come from low income families. As such United should setup training in low income schools to provide the opportunity to people.
That would be effective in hitting their goal but also making sure the pilots are qualified.
He gave an example. Pilot almost crashed the plane by a failure of piloting 101.
