| #2 /\ From Skidmark's article: "The Air Force is also working to improve the diversity of its pilot production, Jacobson said. This includes looking at how the Air Force reaches out to potential pilot candidates and evaluates them to make sure everything is race-, ethnicity- and gender-neutral, he said." Fewer planes, fewer flight hours, and more staff jobs (probably in the Diversity/HR offices...) -- remember when the Air Force's job was to bomb the enemies of the USA? |
