Last week I read a story called Air Canada grapples with 'explicit' material in cockpit. I'm going to read you a paragraph from that story and then analyse things from a broader cultural perspective. So this is what the article has to say: "CBC News has obtained an internal Air Canada bulletin warning flight crews they could be fired or face criminal charges for placing “inappropriate material” in the flight deck, also called the cockpit. It was sent last year, four months after a similar reminder to stop hiding “suggestive images in Company aircraft” appears to have been ignored. “I am disappointed to have to raise this issue once again but unfortunately we have some people that have yet to understand the message,” writes Rod Graham, Air Canada’s chief pilot and director of fleet operations and training. The warnings come six years after a female pilot says she started finding pornography displayed, glued and tucked in a variety of areas in the cockpit on Air Canada’s Embraer fleet of planes. Air Canada investigated her complaint and found “evidence of racial or ethnic prejudice as well as sexual materials in the work place,” according to documents obtained by CBC News through an Access to Information request." Well that's just a portion of the article. I've added the link to it in the description box below so you can have a look at it for yourselves. Out of the fifty to one hundred commercial airline flights I've been on in my life only two that I can remember had female pilots. We can all agree that most pilots are men. But with the airline business cutting back on salaries and retirement benefits over the last twenty years. Even Captain Chesley Sullenberger the pilot that landed the plane on the Hudson River says that it's a terrible time to work in the aviation industry and that cuts to salaries are getting really bad. And that most of the pilots are doing it because they love it and not because it makes them a lot of money. It's the older pilots that get the large salaries. Some of the new pilots working for discount airlines can make more money managing fast food restaurants then flying planes. That scares me and whenever I get on a plane I'm keenly aware of that. So now Air Canada is going after male pilots and trying to remove any sexual images from the cockpit.
