Is it a requirement.
I am a machinist. I deal with engineers that don’t really know much on occasion.

Related, probably paraphrased by me:

“Do you believe all commercial airline pilots should be able read, speak, and comprehend English?”

“Yes, I do expouse that.”

I watched that video this morning. Twice to see if I missed somewhere in it where he showed that he actually knew anything about aviation. Nope. Zilch, Nada, Not a thing! I think the only way Budd was going to get a “yes” in a question asking about his aviation knowledge, was if Budd had asked, “Have you ever been on a plane?”

I think this is great! I never knew that I was already well qualified to lead the FAA!

Putting this guy in charge of the FAA makes about as much sense as putting someone like Pete Buttigieg in charge of the Department of Transportation.

That, and putting a mentally ill she-man in charge of the department of health.

Washington is a negro, that’s his only qualification. Only members of special victim groups get appointed by Biden.

Maybe old Joe will nominate me to be Surgeon General ...

How is “he” on knowledge about rivets, aluminum, fiberglass, plastics, wires, doors and latches, and jet fool?

Ever been in an ATC? A tower? A hanger? Walked a runway looking for FOD particles?

But you’re right. His/her/it’s gender indoctrination is spot on!

No different than putting buttplug in his position of ignorance. The aviation world will ignore ‘it’ and do the job.

Let me guess. It’s the “Mayor Pete Boot-Edge-Edge Standard”. Is Phillip Washington gay and/or trans, is a minority, has no experience in aviation, and ‘uses his tongue prettier than a $20 whore’ in the spirit of Blazing Saddles? Mmmkay....

This guy’s job is to make sure there is no more racism in the air.

All planes must be painted black.

(none of those silly white lights at night either!)

But he does have the right skin pigment. IF I were African American, I would see where this is going, and I would want this to stop. NOW, everyone with darker skin will be part of the EQUITY program of Biden, not MERIT>

They actually should wants this crap to stop. Once a whole bunch of jobs are given to zero experience AA candidates, who then look like idiots, it tends to make all AA-eligibles look like idiotic fools
