"This diversity stuff will get people killed...."

And when it happens, the mockingbirds will treat the cause as a complete mystery.
Hopefully that pilot reports it so its on record.

There are Three major issue from someone like me observing this exchange:

  1. When the pilot said "Well, okay. I will remember that from now on. No problem." that should have been the end of it. Right there. But she kept on pushing it because it is apparent she felt disrespected and wanted to get in the last word.

  2. Then, she said she Googled it, so it is apparently "right".

  3. And the pilot apologized, apparently accepting on its face that not only was Google "right", but that he accepted she was supporting her position with Google, not her experience and education in the specialized field.

That’s not the point.

An ATC should not be ‘googling’ anything. And definitely not a FAA definition on a live approach.

Granted that this is a medium sized airport in Denton Texas, 450 average ops a day, but the fact is she had to Google something that should have been in her head.................

I was in the hospital when a young black woman came in and announced, “I be doin’ your surgery tomorrow.” I was a little frightened by the Blacklish. I asked her a few questions and her answers were prefaced with, “I tell you what the textbook say, the textbook say (XXXX.)” I was terrified for three reasons, she apparently only had whatever the textbook had said in her repertoire which told me she had no experience, I associate the improper use of English with a special kind of non-intelligence, and I have underwear older than her. When I mentioned this encounter with my surgeon, I got an embarrassed mumbled response, (”uhm, yeah, some kind of mumblemumble misunderstanding) but it was the regular surgeon who performed the procedure.

To be clear, my surgeon was a woman, but I was confident she knew her stuff. She also came across as educated, was able to answer questions with authority. I hate to say this, but in the industrial world I sometimes came across well dressed, attractive, young women in positions of authority only to discover they had been hired because they were well dressed and attractive but knew nothing about the job they were supposed to do. Those people are really dangerous because once the people who hired and managed them retire guess who is left running things. I have learned that when that happens, I need to sell my stock.

When I met this doctor I heard, “I need him awake for about thirty seconds.” A face swam into view, fingers lifted an oxygen mask I hadn’t realized was there. She said, “Hello, Mr. Pearson. I am doctor “Smith.” I need to perform an emergency insertion of a filter in the vein leading to your lungs. If I don’t do this now you will die. Do you understand?” I nodded. I’m pretty sure I signed a release which I am certain would not stand up in court as I had no control over my hand, and somebody guided my hand across the page. But she did a good job. So, you can’t say all attractive, well-dressed women are incompetent. But referencing the information on a bubblegum card instead of experience is a clue you need to look out for.

I had a quite similar experience back in 2020 when I had my quad by-pass.

When the doctor, a middle aged guy, came around after the surgery I told him I thought these ‘nurses’ were stupid.

He whispered back “I agree.”.............

We had a middle-aged black woman doctor running for a board seat for our POA. Not sure if MD r Jill Biden-type doctor. In any case, she was clearly a blithering idiot without a clue, everyone who interacted with her or heard her present knew it. She did not prevail.

What is scary is that meritocracy has been thrown out the window in favor of blind DEI promotion and awarding of credentials.

It will not end well.

Let us not forget that not only was she ‘hired’, but that she’s both ‘trained’ and ‘experienced from other airports’.

It just reinforces what I write about in my still unpublished article on aviation.

Snotty, immature woman quite full of herself determined to boss around an accomplished male. And yes, this kind of nonsense does have dire consequences. Just not for the perpetrators.

I seem to be stuck in a rut, because I'm making the following sort of comment on a lot of threads lately:

A lot of young people who want to work hard and follow the rules are losing hope that they can achieve the American Dream. There has been a "fundamental transformation" and meritocracy has been thrown out the window in favor of blind DEI promotion and awarding of credentials. Some folks are giving up because "what's the point?" only certain people are allowed to succeed these days.

I wouldn't want to be young. The people getting ahead these days are not the people who ought to be getting ahead.
