It looks like the pilot was a freshly-minted 26 year old.


Assuming this is true, then it seems likely there was a pilot-error problem.
There's a whole lot yet to be learned/investigated. Before we bury the pilot because a) she's a woman and b) young, let's not forget she was working as a flight instructor before moving up to jets. That would tend to suggest a better level of expertise than the average 26 year old pilot.

Still, I expect the rush to condemn will continue unabated for the near future. A year from now when the final report comes out and if (a big if) there were factors beyond the pilot's control, I fully expect it to go unnoticed around here.
That is true, more information could come out to make another explanation likelier.

Or might it be existing outdated equipment and Biden DEI hires?

This tweet from X perpetuates the big lie.

400 of 45000 FAA employees were fired. Most were probationary and none performed critical safety measures.

Probationary doesn't mean they were bad employees, just that they were new. Every government employee was probationary at one point.
