We need more women and black people working at the airport.
The competency crisis in the airline industry is a problem that only affirmative action can solve.
An already hectic holiday travel day was made more chaotic with two separate plane collisions on the tarmac at Boston Logan International Airport just hours apart on Monday.
In the first crash, an American Airlines jet that was taxiing to its gate clipped the wing of a parked Frontier Airlines plane, local ABC affiliate station WCVB reported.
“That was terrible. It was very scary. All of a sudden, ‘thump.’ It sounded like something fell from below,” Evelyn Pipione, a Frontier passenger, told the news station.
Video obtained by Storyful shows the battered wing of the smaller Frontier plane underneath the wing of the larger American aircraft.
“So, you can see the wing actually broke on the bottom, so the bigger plane — the wing is over, and then ours is cracked at the bottom,” Douglas Garcia, who took the footage, told WCVB.
…
Hours later, a JetBlue airplane that was being towed by a vehicle smacked into a Cape Air plane that had just landed at Logan from Nantucket and was waiting for a gate to open, the local station reported.
As demographics continue to get browner, and as women assume their correct role in charge of everything, we are going to see more and more exciting events at airports, like taxiing planes crashing into each other constantly, as well as serious air disasters of the kind you see in films, such as the films of Michael Bay.
Affirmative action not only helps women and the blacks, it helps all of us by making our lives so much more exciting.
