Re: Racial Discrimination

Many people here refer to being employed by a major airline/operator. Whilst it is good news that in those companies racial boundaries apparently do not exist anymore (in any case regarding the hiring process), I am not so sure if the same would apply to smaller companies, freight companies and corporate aviation. In other words, to those companies that are not so much in the sportlight.

Some of the most bigoted pilots I have come across worked for small operators or in freight. I do not expect myself to make me popular by saying that, but it's my experience. (On an aside, perhaps this mindset is the reason too that these sort of people get stuck in these smaller companies, unable to move on).
