Reading in here she has a background in a Lear, possibly other cooperate plans and in some older corporate jets the PM does activate the flight spoilers on landing. There were no computers in initiate a "ground lift dump".
Her PM was a reporter, so she was basically single pilot in a crewd airplane during an actual emergency, not a LOFT trivial item. She also likely never worked for a regional and therefore never went through IOE on the CRJ.
Lot of guys upset on here how well someone handles an emergency single pilot in a plane their not line standard on, and likely have never flown in real life.
Now her judgment to accept the assignment for 20/20 knowing these things speaks far more than a rusty performance.
