Michael Austin – The Western Journal Feb 9, 2026
Daniel Huff, a former White House lawyer, noted in a recent analysis that the drive toward diversity and inclusion in the airline industry has put passengers at risk.
In an article for the New York Post, Huff wrote that President Donald Trump was right to rescind diversity efforts at the Federal Aviation Administration.
That’s because female and minority pilots — many of whom entered the industry amid a drive toward diversity among pilots — were responsible for half of pilot-error crashes.
Despite making up 10 percent of pilots, they were responsible for four out of eight such crashes since 2000.
“The sample size is small,” Huff wrote. “But precisely because crashes are so rare, the few times they occur it’s important to scrutinize who is at the controls; under DEI’s guiding principle of relying on statistical disparities, it’s certainly enough to raise questions.”
“It’s not that women and minorities are inherently unable to fly planes, but in practice, pressure for affirmative action too often leads airlines to lower their standards to meet quotas,” Huff added.
The attorney referenced the 2019 Atlas Air Crash as an example.
Conrad Aska, a black pilot, “panicked after accidentally initiating a go-around procedure and flew the plane into the ground,” Huff wrote.
There were signs that such behaviors were a risk even as he was training.
In simulator exercises, he would “get extremely flustered and could not respond appropriately.”
Even worse, not all diversity-driven safety incidents even reach the public eye.
“Most diversity disasters leave far-from-complete paper trails. Training failures happen behind closed doors. Near-misses can go unreported,” Huff wrote.
“Crashes can be blamed on mechanical failure, understaffing or other politically acceptable causes.”
Despite Trump’s moves to encourage merit-based hiring of pilots and other air travel personnel, major carriers insist on prioritizing diversity.
A senior Delta executive said in January 2025 that the firm is “steadfast” with respect to diversity, which is “critical to our business.”
United wants half of graduates to be women or minorities, while Southwest still commits to “recruit, hire, and retain a diverse and inclusive workforce.”
Huff contended that “airlines have a moral duty to put passenger safety first.”
“Since they lack the courage, the administration needs a strong enforcer to impose merit-first hiring before the next crash,” he advised.
jewish inversion…promoting bog cleaners into white meritocrasies

Tod dem Juden
W0men bel0ng in th3 kitchen NOT in a COCK pit..
let alone in th3 4rmy.. 🙁
Used to love to fly, haven’t since the tsa made my elderly mother take off her flip-flops. But an affirmative action pilot would scare me right off any plane, if you could (theoretically) get me on it. But, to be fair, have a white, male friend who has his own plane, will not get on that either.
Is common sense racist, or just discriminatory?
It’s NOT just the airline industry!
Putting Dumb Broads in charge of ANYTHING beyond commandeering a tea-trolley is a recipe for disaster!
Which should tell you were THICK Brittistan is headed.. if the best they can come up with to replace Staarmer is that insufferable skank Angela Rayner!
(Or even worse, Mandy’s toy-boy Wessy Sweeting!😘)
The male brain is known to be better in matters pertaining to spatial awareness. The female brain is more suited to verbal skills. It is really frightening the potential consequences of all this especially when most brainwashed normies are implanted through the media and education system with the conditioned reflex that they must not be “sexist”. This basically raises females above legitimate criticism – it is very dangerous for all.
There was a video on Youtube with a female firefighter in the UK who was charged with training a hose on a house on fire. When she was unable to hold the hose on account of the water pressure an old fireman in his fifties came and uncritically took over from her looking around to find her something she could manage to do. This consisted of charging her with ordering the person taking the video to go away which she had no right to do. Obviously he would not have carried a fellow male who was incapable of doing the job in the way this female was.
Just more evidence proving Nazi biological doctrine was correct–wogs & women are less intelligent than white males.
‘Minority pilots’ …Lol
95+% of the world’s population is nonwhite yet this worthless scum is still termed the ‘minorities’.

If the rich scum getting on planes could see the pilots before they got on, most would never do it. Who would you trust to fly a plane that you’d die on if it crashed? The jews have made it pratically impossible for any normal person to travel by boat. It used to be the main way to go from europe to america. Now only rich scum on cruise ships can do it. There’s no ferry across the atlantic. They don’t care because they have their own planes to go wherever they want. Would you get on a plane flown by black immigrants? By koreans? By indians? By a gay woman? By any woman? Imagine the tards boiling over if you said it. I wouldn’t trust my life to any pilot flying today. Even the actual pilots are woke and shot up with jew juice.
80% of planecrashes are caused by human error, including design errors, maintenance, flightcontrol and pilots. Flying on a plane allways was a dangerous adventure.
According to bumper sticker doctrine ‘Well behaved women seldom make history’.
Women who use this doctrine as a reason ‘to make history’ actually make it stupid for everyone else.
LOL…
It’s always a hoot when an imbecile is weasel whirred..cross tongued, eye tied…
To wit:
“It’s not that women and minorities are inherently unable to fly planes, but in practice, pressure for affirmative action too often leads airlines to lower their standards to meet quotas,” Huff added.
let us unpack:
‘it’s not that women and minorities are cof cof, inherently, unable to fly planes.. ‘ (he thinks it probable)..
‘but in practice’.. (it seems that they really can’t)..lolo…
pressure from affirmative akshun.. ( rich jewes made us do it)..chortle chortle…
too often leads to airlines lowering their standards to meet quotas..( incompetency and failure are the wages of deceit)…
of course technocracy is the science of managing society through science..but social scientism which is really pseudo science has to evade the bleeding edge of consequence..
usually with more magical thinking..usually talmudic..
DEI makes flying more dangerous after it became risky to fly when western scumbags like the CIA and the Clintons decided it was fair game to wipe out a planeload of people just to kill one person.
“It’s not that women and minorities are inherently unable to fly planes, but in practice, pressure for affirmative action too often leads airlines to lower their standards to meet quotas,” Huff added.
Well if that statement is not rayciss against pollytitkal correctness and equality of men in the west where the 50/50 women quota once ruled for a short time before it came down to 20% circumcised men, 8% uncircumcised men, 42% wimmin incl “all sorts minority migrants” imported from under some rocks in global deserts or tropical rainforests, 18% from kosher dyke/lesbian aktivissm, 12% transgender of all Jewish categories incl pooftery/butchism/no isms-at-all and gefillte fish whatnots plus the greenish Greens of ALL mixed versions of abominations that humanity has to offer than I must be the second best prostitute in the Azerbaijan Republik or Crowleys secret African concubine.
The statistic of course comes directly from the western ABS – ALLKIND BULLOCKS SERVICE

Comment:
The guy who wrote this isn’t an aviation expert, he’s a former Trump lawyer with a DEI axe to grind. He doesn’t say how he found the 8 crashes; the NY Post article only lists the “DEI” examples. Note that in all of these examples, the minority pilot was not the pilot in command; a white male was in charge. For a stark example of how this can work out in practice, read https://fearoflanding.com/i-learned-from-that/navigating-instrument-failure-at-10000-feet/ .
So we now get only 4 out of 16 pilots in these crashes were minorities, provided the number 8 is true. And none were in command.
But then he counts things like the DCA mid-air, where the trainee pilot wasn’t the one who accepted visual separation without having the traffic in sight. He tries to make the crash her fault when the white male army instructor actually messed up.
And there’s a common thread in these 4 accidents: bad communication in the cockpit. Maybe having an old white man in the left seat who won’t bother to communicate when the other crew is anything but another white man is the real problem? Having no respect for their FO means CRM breaks down, and we know that’s a danger.
Assume that everyone with an ATPL can actually fly—regardless of gender or skin color. Leaving it to the old white men can’t be the solution.

Ha ha… DIEversity. Never send boy to do a man’s job. Let alone a girl. ZOG doesn’t know that?
Ninety-nine times out of a hundred, putting females in positions that matter is a recipe for disaster. With lower average intelligence, emotion and hormone driven, there’s a reason why wimmin cluster in non-jobs like HR.
Yes, there are stupid men whose intelligence quotient falls below that of the average female. Likewise there are superior females whose intelligence is on a par with the best of men. But these are extremes.
peter mandelson said years of taking it up the bottom has made him a good jew
just keep wearing the nappies peter and shut up
If I was boarding a plane and saw a black female in the cockpit, I’d turn on my heels and head straight back to the terminal….only the terminally stupid would board and strap themselves in.
And the roughest landing I’ve experienced in well over a decade, and I’ve flown quite a bit, was about 9 months ago and the pilot was a white woeman.
@ Anonymous is spot on, “there’s a reason why wimmin cluster in non-jobs like HR”, especially black woemen and deranged dykes and queers.
