Why do you need to specify her gender?

The same reason I mention 1000FPM rate of descent,I was simply relaying all the information that had been given to me as I thought readers of this forum may find it of interest.

Are you suggesting I should have perhaps decided to withhold that information effectively applying my own censorship ? If so I’m not sure why, that’s not for me to do, it’s up to the readers of this forum to decide for themselves what packets of information may or may not be relevant, not me.

Why did you choose this picture as entertainment for this topic? 

Because it is funny and because it illustrates the glaring need for diversity in pilotage and serving positions in our precious American airlines. More bovine stewardesses and canine pilots should be of major concern. If necessary, the programs to accomplish should be obscured deep in documents rarely seen by nosy taxpayers or the prying eyes of fiscal reform advisory committees.

Zero flare.

Would you have reported a man’s gender?

Why is a picture of Goofy flying a Caribbean airline funny?

The Pilot Flying was an ex-Navy pilot and thought she was doing a carrier landing.

Everyone but you knows why. So why are you asking. Be specific... very specific.

Yeah, I really don’t know why, so explain it to me.

Edit, and did you yourself consider the gender to be important when you yourself decided what information to relay and not to relay?

After all, hopefully you won’t consider it brutally contrarian to say you probably don’t remember all information given to you with 100%fidelity, but you did consider it important to remember that the pilot was a woman.

I think we all recognize "brutally contrarian" behavior. And passive aggressive behavior. And baiting behavior.

Goofy flying an airliner is intrinsically funny. Comedy is allowed now, and has been for a few weeks. Satire and memes are a good way to point out obvious facts that may be uncomfortable for some.

So if you have a problem, kindly forego the passive aggressiveness and state your problem directly. Be specific.

Lets not sabotage the thread. 🙄

Oooooooh no, you’re gonna have to do better than that. What obvious fact that is uncomfortable for some is sharing a picture of famously loaded character Goofy flying a very specific Caribbean airline pointing out.

Again, no mealy mouthed equivocations, why Goofy in the Caribbean, in this thread?

Edit: and you STILL haven’t explained why you posted that particular link to that particular airline page. Again, man up. Tell us why.

You'll have to tell me. You're the one who is uncomfortable. What is it that has you upset about that meme? Please state your problem, and be specific.

MODERATORS: You have a choice of locking the thread, issuing a few warnings or deleting a few contentious posts.

If you'd read the page you'd know exactly why. The second link was edited to show that it was the same airline.

So... go read the pages at the links and you tell ME why I posted it.

I couldn't remember why I'd had you in my ignore list for a long time, but now I know exactly why.
