While I do not wish to comment on this specific incident, as I don't have the facts, it does remind me of two incidents that I had which are examples of the errors to which humans are vulnerable, be they of male, female or indeterminate gender:
1: Citation II. Two crew public transport. Levelled at FL330 and wondered why the airspeed was slower than expected. Eventually discovered that the flaps were still at the take-off setting.
2: B737-300. Public transport. I forgot to call for gear up after take-off. When discovered a few minutes later, the F/O retracted the gear, but then later inadvertently placed the lever through 'OFF' to 'DOWN'. Led to a few choice remarks about 'strange noises' in the cabin from the Flight Attendants!
