Air Force Thunderbirds prioritize diversity in cockpit amid puzzling decline in applicants - Washington Times

The Air Force’s vaunted Thunderbirds jet fighter aerobatics team is not diverse enough inside the cockpit.

Brig. Gen. Christopher M. Short, commander of the 57th Wing at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, said in an email last month that of 15 pilot applicants for three openings, 14 are white.

He asked fighter wing commanders to stir up more candidates who “don’t necessarily look like each of you.” He bemoaned the fact that, not only is there a lack of diversity, but the number of applicants to make the world-famous team has taken a puzzling drop in the past two years.

“I am asking for your help in finding the right pilots for next year’s Thunderbirds team,” is how Gen. Short begins his email.

We'll know the T-birds are truly committed to diversity when they start accepting Navigators and Missile Officers.


Jump in any time you see where herr Ubergruppenfuhrer Short's email is just a tad fucking racist.....

This whole "equality" thing has officially gone from amusing to dangerous.......

I suspect that there is a very logical reason overall recruitment is down - - - - Brig. Gen. Christopher M. Short, commander of the 57th Wing at Nellis Air Force Base.

If there were 200 applicants instead of 15, things might go better.

It was interesting to read in the article that they are getting to the point of having to 'recruit' volunteers. Pretty bad.....

When you consider that every single one of the Teams in various forces, whether it's the Blues, or the Thunderbirds, Snowbirds, or the Red Arrows; most pilots would kill for an assignment there. You get to fly with the BEST. It's not for plumbers. Being 5-10, good looking and a approved skin tone, aint one of the qualifications. I sometimes wonder if these imbecilic retards even listen to what they are saying. We should send Chuck Yeager to just punch this asshole right in the mouth. Lordy..

Fightersweep.com always seems a little behind some things, probably because they focus on actual flying stuff. But read it, especially what the Ed. has to say there. I know when I first saw this stuff last week, I thought it was probably one of the most racist things I'd seen in an age. I still do. The entire "Diversity" horseshit is just blatant, naked racism. Just no one has the balls to call them out on it
