Why the problem of flight delays and cancellations won't be going away:
I was talking to my Dad about flight delays and staffing issues, and my dad pointed out a problem I'd missed entirely.
There are no new pilots.
When the pandemic hit, passenger airlines in the US laid off all their pilots. If those pilots were within 5, maybe 10 years of retiring, they mostly decided to retire early.
Fast forward to now and the airlines are trying to hire back all those pilots, who are responding
So they're trying to hire new pilots instead. But there's a problem with that. There's no such thing as "new pilots" that you can just hire.
Airliner pilots come from two main career paths. One is rich kids who can afford to pay for flight training and either own or rent planes to fly, and rack up at least 1,500 hours in the air flying. That's very expensive. And that's minimum to become a copilot.
The other way is via the military. The vast majority of airline pilots in the US are ex navy or air force.
But there's the big problem. The military isn't training many aircraft pilots anymore, they're training drone pilots.
Drone pilots never leave the ground, and as such any "flight time" they might have doesn't count towards that 1500 hour requirement. Just like simulator training doesn't count.
And thus, the pool of new pilots has disappeared. This happened a while ago, but it hadn't yet become a big problem for airlines because their (aging) pilot workforces were flying for longer.
But they just laid off all those older pilots, and they aren't coming back.
To make things worse, to become the primary pilot of an airliner requires a ton of hours flying as a copilot. And the pilots that did remain are either the younger ones that still aren't full pilots and are still copilots, or are getting close to looking to retire too.
Basically, airlines are ****** in the next decade, because there won't be enough pilots left in the world unless they bite the bullet and start paying to train new pilots themselves. Something they absolutely don't want to do because it's expensive!

Here's a more detailed report on what's going on in Philly, another city with a Soros-backed communist DA:

“A Wawa in Philadelphia is in shambles after dozens of young people…” That’s how this news report starts out. “Young people.” That’s so quaint, isn’t it...

Every day we see more and more lootings. The Tom Iron Rule. You know it's funny as there are so many poor whites all over
and I don't see them doing the same things. It's called the bell curve but they don't want to admit the truth.

Some of you may be familiar with the pro-life father of seven who defended his 12 year old son in 2019 was arrested by over a dozen Swat team hoods and dragged off in front of his children after (((Atty General Garrland))) ordered the case reopened.

Hoax is probably spot on. I am hoping folks will just start yawning at these "incidents" and see the agenda behind it all. These things are getting old.Here we go again, another hoax aimed at BYU:

I’m hoping that they go beyond yawning and start fighting back. These hoaxes are really blood libels against our people. No other racial group puts up with it and neither should we.

Good clarity you bring Freethinker. I didn't mean to imply "merely" yawning at the supposed occurances that crop up with all the question marks we see. Yes indeed, any and all of our people should stand against any and all the nonsense that are, as you pointed out, libels against us as a whole.

Hey, I didn’t mean to imply you felt that was good enough, but rereading what I wrote, it appears that way. Apologies.
I think we both know that our enemies are only emboldened by our (White people generally) collective passivity. They only understand force, hence the need to push back against these attacks against our people.

No apology necessary as I knew you didn't mean it that way bro.
I agree that passivity is a huge detriment to us collectively. Sharks smell blood and go for the kill, so do they of their ilk and always looking to capitalize on our perceived weaknesses. Unfortunately, they are right sometimes and our pushback is definitely needed.

I love this country but I can't stand the leaders and their satanic luciferian agenda. God will have the final say. What a damn shame!
I tried to quote Don's post on the Black Panther and the Great Reset but the quote button only put in something from my browser. Anyway I called it with blacks, the covid death shot and the slow motion wipeout of the covid hysteria. I knew if I held out long enough the evil Democratic powers would come up against their own constituents especially blacks and then being master politicians that bit of narrative would slowly disappear. Not even Democratic clowns are getting the latest booster. Womanish hysteria burns bright but quickly.
