Some of the best pilots I flew with were female. The best CA I ever flew with was female. There does however seem to be more of a pass for training issues based on gender. Training to proficiency is not a good safety concept. There needs to be a reasonable standard for how much extra instruction will be provided before someone is asked to leave. I actually believe DEI is a worthy concept but not if you lower standards.
So, you are going to attempt to attach a reason to it?
