At the end of the day, the pilots screwed up and entered the gauntlet of the storm systems, which cost a family and their friend's lives. People can debate DEI or not. People can talk about the "heroics" of the co-pilot's communications... but this wouldn't have happened if they had fully diverted away from the storm system, instead of trying to cut through a corridor to the Bahamas. The arrogance of the flight crew to think that a Learjet, known for ice-related aerodynamic problems, can handle a Floridian unpredictable mess of storms is just crazy. Storms grow rapidly inside the system and can easily tear a plane like a Learjet apart. As soon as she said "clear light ice," that was already inching close to disaster... at that point it should have been a clear emergency scenario even before entering the final storm cell. If they had followed the rule of maintaining at least 20 miles from the storm's edge, they could have been fine, just arrived late. The male pilot had non-continuous employment, and his actual total experience is questionable. The female young co-pilot was only 20... depth of experience is just not a "thing" at that age. That decision to enter that storm system is what killed innocent lives, and no amount of "glazing" the female pilot, or blaming the male pilot, changes that. It was still a joint decision by the flight crew.
