Are you telling me that you'd all overlook that and say he's entitled to his opinioin and we should just let bygones be bygones?
Hearing this would be a surprise to you?

What I always wonder is, why the "diversity" crowd does not accept people who are, well, Neanderthals? How come they can't be "included"???

I'm talking live mic, so that you're not struggling to hear a deaf mumbler over your headset and his speaker. The rjs had a on/off switch, wanna talk select on, mouth breather at cruise? Turn it off.

Also lent you to the ability to talk in the other guys ear while he was making a PA... such a great system.

The so called open minded diversity nazis are some of the most anti free speech, anti free thought, control freaks on earth. However we can learn from this. We need to force this issue with all these subsidized foreign airlines trying to poach our custumers with their inherent sexism, ageism, weightism, and in some cases flat out racism, anti-semitisim and religious discrimination. Heck since weight is nothing more than a disibility that the pharmeceutical industry can solve with more pills, its also a protected lifestyle under the infinite Americans with Disabilities Act, so we should lobby for airlines that don't abide by the same hiring and employment protections our workers enjoy not be allowed into our airspace. Otherwise we are subsidizing their discrimination, which is a clear cut end around US worker/disability law and fair employment practices. Worth a try anyway if we can stop the slide of marketshare to foreign airlines.

I came here to post this but I see the story is out. I rarely come on here anymore but I heard it and I was like oh this is not going to look good for pilots. The video below has the recording if anyone still heard it yet, it's about to go viral too so this is just the beginning.

First time I'd heard the audio. Nice, Skywest.
