We don't know.

I just want the pilots flying my family around to be as good as possible and were hired based on their skill and not their sex or skin color.Who wrote: ↑Fri Feb 21, 2025 11:48 pmWe all know women and people of color aren’t qualifies for positions with any type of responsibility.CHEEZY17 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 21, 2025 8:45 pmWe don't know.

If that person happens to be a woman or black person then so be it. Who cares?

Re: TF with all the planes
