Understanding

Afri - you are understood. We have an operation that has a healthy mix of all Gods miscreants and from time to time the disputes are there. There is a fine line between what one can call a "cultural observation or difference" and a racist remark or action.

Whilst I don't agree with fast tracking people through a system to comply with quotas, I do agree with actively encouraging aviation participation by all races, minorities and if neccessary investing in policy. Cost cutting however is an affront to safety and the wrong approach.Don't get yourself banned from posting over emotional issues, you have a sound contribution to make.

Shriko - is the little green fairy dancing in your mind - dude, heat the absynthe before serving

"the scores of those that died in the ruthless hands of white oppressors, we wouldn't be where we are today in South Africa."

AFRI
Slow down a minute...... You guys kill more of your own than the Whites could do in a hundred years.

And the ONLY reason your running the show in SA is because the rest of the world turned a blind eye. It is ALSO now on the downhill slide, thanks a bunch.

Angry

B Souza,that is really offensive.
Please do not tell me that you actually believe that sentiment you expressed.
You are not a very nice person if you not only think,but express such sentiments.
Thank God for change of times,or this world would have a Nazi emperor,and social policies that would spell doom for mankind.

I think I’m still out on bail, better use the limited time effectively.

I know this is a rumour network, but some of the prejudiced posts here with unfounded statements are sickening.

E.g
“Pal have your rant but please point out to me one successful African country......None”

“This new program at SAA will be a disaster”

“Slow down a minute...... You guys kill more of your own than the Whites could do in a hundred years”

If you have to defend the status quo, try and be a bit more factual and don’t just throw blind punches. Instead of crying standards and Safety why don’t you come out and say that you think black people are stupid and therefore they should not be Pilots?

That won’t be seen odd, as the topic of this thread suggests.
