And I blame human resources and other things which keep good pilots out of the cockpit and put marginal pilots into the cockpit.
This. This is the elephant in the room, in a couple of crashes lately.
Not being from the USA, I'm not sure that I understand this fully. Are you saying that women can't fly as well as men, or that there is a quota for women that has to be filled irrespective of ability?

Or is it something quite different, that makes sense?
