ASA's newest milestone

[Kerveball]

Guys Rachelle is a very cool Captain. I've flown with her in and outside of ASA. Not only does she fly in general aviation, but she is very low key. Captain Jones'eh does not brag, exploit her sex or throw civil rights around. She is very tolerant of all sailor talking pilots. And the first person to complain about people with no work ethic.

The truth is that she worked very hard to get where she is today. If you can't be happy for this girl and her crew then you really need to get a life.

Fyi, I'm as white as Cosmo Kramer.

#1 Who gives a rats A$$ if you have flown with her outside of ASA?
#2 Who gives a rats A$$ if she flies GA? (when I finish my pairing I stay as far away from airplanes as I can till my next duty in)
#3 Funny you say she complains about work ethic, yet everytime Ive ever gotten on the plane after her (while she was FO) the trash was always still hanging on the seat.
#4 We all worked hard and made tremendous sacrifices to get where we are at today and Rachelle is no exception. I have a ton of respect for someone in her shoes. Im not going to lie....the first time I saw her with 4 stripes I thought that was pretty cool. What an achievement....however we are all just getting a little sick of the whole situation getting rammed into our faces.
Enough is enough already!
Congrats to the girls!
Now lets move on.....

Interesting. She was in the lounge, when she was a new FO, talking about as soon as DAL began hiring again that she was out of here since she was female and AA.

Also interesting is that years ago our HR department stated that SB helped her, financially, get in to FSI.

Get over your righteous self. OUR profession should be based on someones ability. Not by their skin color or sex. A label doesn't do anything when an emergency takes place. Your skills do.

Let me get this right, they all work at ASA on a normal day anyway... so that flight was special because...?

Because, they all got paired together!? Seems like more of an accomplishment for crew planning.

Not like the rest of us...who had our jobs, ability and opportunity just given to us since it's the birthright of white males...right?

Good for them!! They should be acknowledged. Hopefully they don't read FlightInfo. That video is appalling and it's shameful people laugh at that stuff. Why lower the standards of our profession??

 

[samballs]

Where was the flight to. Hopefully SC I'd like to see what some of the passengers thought of having an all black crew?

Nice.....

I just can't wait for the other "milestones" which have not yet been broken:

-The first all-dominatrix-midget-stripper flight crew
-The first all-diet-sprite-drinkers flight crew
-The first all-transvestite-golfer flight crew
-The first all-furless-cat-owners flight crew
-The first all-bankrupt-and-twice-divorced flight crew
-The first-all-hairlipped flight crew
-The first all-irritable-bowl-syndrome flight crew-P.U.

Seriously-who the hell gives a crap?

How incredibly inappropriate.

Are you jealous? You would take the opportunity also--as would I. Equal opportunity is a theory, not a reality. As an employee of a ASA, you have an advantage in mainline's hiring practice over pilots from most other Regionals. However, there is other criteria that has to be met for you to qualify.

Also interesting is that years ago our HR department stated that SB helped her, financially, get in to FSI.

If that is true, Cheers to SB! He was a good man. Maybe his example should be followed by all those whiners, too CHEAP and too principled, to contribute pocket change to the Furlouged Pilot Fund!

If that's your position, how did you feel when major airlines only hired ex-military? Certainly, they had demonstrated their ability and had excellent training.

Skin color and gender(sex) were discriminating factors in hiring for a number of years--and I would dare say, may still be at some properties.

How do you feel about the college degree or other education requirment?

 

[Speedtape]

It's interesting to read some of these toxic posts. The question to ask most, is how do you feel about yourself? Does this recognition make you feel small or bad about yourself?

Bottom line: It was history--no matter how it was staged or how one wants to view it. Recognize the fact and move on.

Somone on the Company forum commented that his feelings were hurt because the first all Italian crew had not been rocognized yet. Maybe, it has not happened, yet.

The First Idiot to make insensitive and inappropriate comments on that forum was not recognized yet either--or. Maybe he was!

Its a good thing people decided to do their venting on FI. Because if I heard some of these posts uttered around the lounge things would get interesting REAL quick.........

Anyways, a remarkable achievement by these 4 women and ASA. Very fitting for this to happen at an airline based in Atlanta, home to the most affluent black population in the US.

Boy, sure seems like ASA made this happen for publicity. So how do they feel knowing that they were used by ASA. Again just another milestone of nothing but blacks acting like they are brought down, get off your lazy a$$ and make things happen.... ATL ramp proves that
