Glad I no longer have to fly. I flew a lot while working as an engineer. My last flight was one-way from Manchester, NH to El Paso, TX to help my sister sell the family home and move (Drive) to Punxsytawnie, PA and on home.
When I look up into the sky and see a commercial airliner, I say, “You poor, poor bastards!”

Aren’t airlines trying to hire back pilots? And since when is the Union not sticking up for their members? What happens if the pilot uses the word cockpit? Fired? Fined? All unuin members need to tell union to F/O and maybe start a Decertification move.

No, those terms were discarded about thirty years ago.
They are ‘Flight Attendants’ now. No need for separate terms for males and females or ‘other’............................ I have always wondered why stewards and stewardesses accepted being called "flight attendants." Steward/stewardess implies trust, responsibility, care, and being in charge. "Flight attendant" does not carry these connotations and implies that someone is merely present or on hand, like a "gas station attendant."

Could somebody tell me how we’re supposed to win World War 3 ... Winning world wars is so-o-o-o-o-o last century.
Meanwhile they are winning their war, and you and everyone you care about is their enemy.

You’re right, of course, but that mental illness is contagious. All of this woke nonsense is symptomatic. In fact, woke is a mental illness.

Possibly, the bridge. The cockpit was originally meant to be the area where the ships wheel of a sailing ship was located.

Somehow, in the bad old days, women and minorities became successful pilots starting just after the Wright brothers and Glenn Curtiss invented the airplane. Yet we are told that traditional terms like cockpit, joystick, airmen, and manpower now deter them from aviation. I am not sure though that I would want my life to depend on such timid souls. Instead of trying to recruit weak pilots, we may do better with automation in their place — and in place of ALPA.

Missing female aviator, Amelia Earhart, would agree with you.......

“Woman” and “airman” seem to be equally triggering to me.

We, (retired pilot) have been referring to it as the “Flight Deck” as long as I can remember.
