In 2014, the FAA rolled out the new biographical questionnaire in line with the Barrier Analysis recommendation, designed so that 90% or more of applicants would "fail." The questionnaire was not monitored, and people could take it at home. Questions asked prospective air traffic controllers how many sports they played in high school, how long they'd been unemployed recently, whether they were more eager or considerate, and seventy-some other questions. You can take a portion of it yourself here to see what they were up against. Graduates of the CTI program, like everyone else, had to "pass" this or they would be disqualified from further consideration. This came alongside other changes de-prioritizing CTI graduates.
And, further down in the piece,
Just effing wonderful.
I think Mr. Woodgrains defense of Buttigieg is flawed, as Buttigieg has shown himself happy to play every 'the highways are racist' and other such bullshit that's come along. But Woodgrains has a good rundown on this FAA idiocy.

The leftist mentality will choose DEI over competency all day every day.
If an occasional plane crash has to happen to make DEI the rule of law then
oh well, so be it.
well they DID advertise air traffic control jobs for mentally deficient etc. folks last month.
I'm Not against diversity. People who have demonstrated the requisite skills, talents and abilities to perform at the level doing the job safely should have the job. The first and best get hired.I don't understand WHY anyone would force employers to hire the unskilled,without talent and ability to accomplish the tasks to hire people who simply can't cut it. Will the Army have blind snipers soon?
