She's not the first one.
A few years ago, a cadet couldn't fly the 747 and was sent to the airbus.

I hope she'll develop flying skills in case she's got to upgrade on another fleet.
I don't know why, but I think the opposite could happen. I must admit my flying skills are not as good as when I was fresh out of school.

It makes one wonder. How do they manage to graduate from flight school? What's
the failure rate in Adelaide? Is the initial selection magically the best in the world and they only select skilled candidates?

At least in KA, they finally fired the cadet who had a 3G landing, and with whom the training captains had to take controls on every landing.

There's no excuse to have a DEFO who can't fly.
