Those zany female pilots are at it again—only this time, they’re clipping wings and careening down the runway. The latest DEI disaster in the skies is just another example of what happens when identity politics trumps qualifications. But before we nosedive into this latest catastrophe, let’s rewind to a recent “girl power” moment that ended in flames.
You probably remember the Endeavor Air runway fiasco—not just a near-miss, but a full-on crash landing. The plane, proudly manned by an all-female crew, touched down upside down and skidded down the tarmac in a fiery spectacle. Passengers were no doubt reliving their worst nightmares as the aircraft scraped across the ground, proving once again that diversity hires don’t make for safe landings.
...
The Delta plane that flipped over in Canada at Pearson Airport was operated by Endeavor Air.
This Company has pushed DEI and bragged about having “unmanned” all female flights.
....
The airline industry has been hit hard by the left’s dangerous and deadly DEI movement. The once “friendly skies” are now a crapshoot of confusion, chaos, and calamity. And speaking of DEI disasters, we recently covered a story about an FAA supervisor who actually fed test answers to a group of unqualified minority applicants taking an air traffic control exam.
Safety last.
Revolver:
DEI is slowly but surely destroying this country. It’s gotten so bad—so deeply entrenched in every system—that President Trump has made eradicating it a cornerstone of his administration. And not a moment too soon.
Just look at this latest bombshell, courtesy of a Daily Mail exclusive. They got their hands on a voicemail from a DEI activist and FAA supervisor who, according to their report, handed out critical answers to an air traffic control exam—to a select group of minority candidates.
No wonder the once “friendly skies” have turned so deadly…
....
DEI activist allegedly caught sharing air traffic controller exam answers with minority candidates in leaked audio obtained by the Daily Mail
Shelton Snow, a prominent figure in the National Black Coalition of Federal Aviation Employees (NBCFAE), was caught in a shocking audio clip promising advance access to test answers
‘There are some valuable pieces of information that I have taken a screenshot of and I am going to send that to you via email,’ says Snow
‘I am about 99.99 percent sure that it is exactly how you need to answer each question.’
The inside information was offered in 2014 to African Americans, females, and other minority candidates, while Whites were excluded to “minimize competition.”
It remains unknown how many candidates benefited from Snow’s offer to secure coveted air traffic controller jobs
Snow stated, “We can give you advance access to test answers,” as reported by DailyMail
But one former NBCFAE member, Matthew Douglas, told DailyMail: ‘I know several people who cheated and I know several people who are controlling planes as we speak.’
...
And speaking of unsafe skies and DEI, look at what just happened on a Delta flight—another wing hit the runway.
...
Look, we get it, there are plenty of highly qualified female pilots out there—that’s never been the issue. What people are fed up with is companies sacrificing safety and lowering excellence standards just to hit their woke hiring quotas.
Unfortunately, that seems to be the cornerstone of Endeavor Air—they’re more about “girl power” than actual piloting skills. They’ve turned into TikTok sensations, navigating social media with flashy diversity promos and feel-good videos. Too bad they don’t handle runways with the same expertise.
...
Hiring pilots simply because they’re female, gay, trans, or whatever checkbox they’re chasing doesn’t make flying safer or smarter—it just puts all of us at risk, and it’s totally unacceptable.
..…
And that brings us to the latest Endeavor fiasco. The super empowered airline had yet another oopsie-daisy moment when one of their fearless female pilots ever-so-gracefully clipped the runway with her wig wing. And, like, she totally had no idea it even happened. Like, omg, no biggie, right? Planes totally just do that sometimes!
...
This is the real danger of DEI—it’s not just annoying, it’s downright lethal. The left has taken American excellence and twisted it into American charity, where qualifications take a backseat to identity politics. And that’s not progress—it’s pathetic. This is how you destroy a country from the inside out. Americans don’t want to see “girl power” TikTok pilots giggling in the cockpit. We want serious, capable, highly trained professionals—male or female—who actually know how to land a plane without turning it into a viral disaster.
Can you confirm both pilots were female?
That website is extremely suspect. It has an agenda which would have been well received by ignorant people 100 years ago.
cue the Benny Hill music
A good friend of mine had a daughter who wanted to be an airline pilot. She got her license and when they were on vacation they rented a plane and they flew over the Grand Canyon. She was in the process of taking more lessons and one day, with her instructor sitting next to her, was practicing takeoffs and landings. As she was practicing a takeoff the plane nosedived into the runway. Neither she nor her instructor survived.
They were not. Captain in command was male, 1st officer was a woman, she was flying the plane.
A female pilot, my my. Would the same comment be made for a male pilot? Why don’t they say a male pilot did this or that? Always have to mention it was a female pilot. What if it was a tran pilot? Would they say a female pilot??
Anyone on board....
The lovely Karen Black having to fly the plane in Airport 1975.

Women can fly as well as anyone. It’s landing that they struggle with....
The Revolver “News” story says absolutely nothing about the accident except that the pilot was female, and it says nothing about the pilot’s qualifications (or lack thereof), the circumstances of the accident, the weather, etc.
But she’s female.
In related news, Hitler was an artist and liked dogs.
Ted Kennedy had dandruff.
Donald Trump probably eats too much ice cream.
The list is endless.
Women in combat . . . .
My best guess it is the unqualified DEI hires causing most of the problems...Man or woman...Makes no difference if the hires are unqualified...
Good thing airport terminals don’t have parallel parking.
The incident a few weeks ago where the male pilot had just landed and the plane’s tail hit a plane and part of it broke off caused me to joke:
Pilot: I told you that this weekend I was going to get me a piece of tail.
Never say in 1,000 words what you can say in 10,000.
But it’s always women pilots who are mentioned, never the guys.
Yeah, I’ve noticed that...From the first I read a few weeks ago, I thought of you and I understand how this must make you feel...
LOL...
The Captain in the DC helicopter was male but a female was piloting - perhaps conflating with these Endeavor errors?
I’ve not seen much more on the Endeavor flights and even now they have never (so far as I know) released the names of the crew who flipped things in Canada.
