Aviation Accidents Becoming the Norm; Why?

February 24, 2025 by Ara Leave a Comment

Another week, another aviation accident. 

Over the past two months, at least four ‘accidents’ occurred in North America with casualties and tragic loss of life. These anomalies have led some to ask if something far more sinister is in play than mere acts of God.

Aviation has been advertised as the safest mode of transportation for nearly a century. Airline tragedies do occur, but at far less frequency than automobiles, trains, or boats. In fact, the disparity is striking enough that no algorithm brings it to light.

Hence, when planes start falling from the sky at an unprecedented rate, it rings a few alarm bells.

The latest aviation crash: Delta Flight 4819

Last week, a Delta Airlines jet flying from Minneapolis crashed and overturned while landing in Toronto, Canada.

Thankfully, there were no casualties out of the 76 passengers and 4 crew on board. According to emergency services, one child and two adults were seriously injured.

2025 has been nothing short of disastrous for airlines.

Once videos surfaced of the incident, thanks to the age of the cell phone, there were more questions than answers.

The plane, a Mitsubishi CRJ-900LR, can be seen slamming hard into a snowy runway, combusting shortly afterward and landing upside down. It’s been said that video never lies – it’s certainly the case with this latest incident.

How a plane with no discernible damage failed so miserably at sticking an academic landing for any experienced pilot has many scratching their heads. It’s worth noting that Delta Airlines is offering $30K for each passenger onboard. The damage control seems to be in hyperspeed as the public demands to know what happened.

Not qualifications, quotas. What could go wrong?

Peruse the internet, and you’ll encounter theories as to why these accidents are becoming increasingly common.

One belief is that companies like Delta are more concerned with adhering to woke agendas than employing qualified individuals. If this is true, yikes. We’re talking about aviation, not some food court employee squeezing your lemonade.

Delta Air Lines Chief Diversity, Equity & Inclusions Officer:

“We’re really proud that we’ve eliminated the required college degree in more than 90% of our jobs. It’s plain and simple, EQUITY is the motive.”  -Keyra Lynn Johnson

A company bragging about lowering education degree standards for many of its jobs for ‘equity’ purposes instead of merit defines facepalm.

Woke quotas should never supersede safety, particularly when you’re dealing with a high-stakes sector like aviation. Think about this the next time you decide to fly Delta.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion [DEI]: What does it mean, and is it in play here?

In short, DEI is sweeping reforms organizations and companies implement in the name of equality. 

We live in a world driven by optics – a reality where public perception drives companies to implement questionable standards simply to fill quotas and look good. However, when put into practice, these ‘look good’ initiatives can have dire consequences.

Take law enforcement – do you want the most qualified officers hired or individuals with questionable expertise who check the proverbial quota box?

What about men and women serving in our military?  It’s an honest question that needs to be discussed at length, regardless of the vocational sector one focuses on.

The President Weighs in on DEI

The fatal mid-air collision between an American Airlines plane and a military chopper in Washington, D.C., last month had President Trump questioning if DEI was in play.

Since Trump took office, the President has issued several executive orders intending to dismantle DEI across the federal government.  These orders focus on eliminating certain DEI training programs, particularly those seen as promoting critical race theory and reversing other diversity-related practices in federal agencies.

These policies are framed as moves to reduce government overreach and promote merit-based decision-making. Critics argue that it could undermine efforts toward creating more inclusive environments.

They’re making it about sex, not safety

A quick sift through social media platforms like Elon’s X uncovers reels made by Delta employees with titles like “When you have an unmanned flight crew.” 

These videos depict all women crews championing their womanhood with the implied message being ‘Who needs men?’

The ignorance of such vignettes cannot be understated. A sector like aviation, where life and death hang in the balance every step of the way, should be about hiring the most qualified individuals available. Anyone who says otherwise is not only misguided but dangerous.

Aviation Cover-up Mode by Delta?

Early reports suggest 26-year-old Kendal Swanson was the first officer on the Delta flight. She recently received her Airline Transport Pilot certification and previously only had experience flying small propeller planes as an instructor.

Many are asking if she was qualified for this role, or if this was another case of DEI hiring in play. What is interesting is Delta’s refusal to confirm the pilots’ identities despite public pressure.

Read the tea leaves; this could be a case of damage control by Delta. This is speculative, but perhaps Delta is aware that DEI was in play and led to this catastrophe.

Meritocracy is King

The goal in any sector should be to ensure the best candidates, regardless of background, are selected based on their qualifications, skills, and experience.

Finding a balance between diversity and merit is the sweet spot. This ensures that the highest levels of competence are always prioritized while also addressing barriers that may have existed for certain groups in the past. Until that is attained, it could be white-knuckle time in the world of aviation.
