I will disagree with you on social subjects forever.
But if you say an airplane is unsafe, I will believe you and not fly it without another word or protest.

I'd only hope you'd make the same choice if you thought your aircraft was unsafe regardless of whether I was there or not.

Preliminary reports appear to show that some or all of the brakes locked up (almost?) immediately on touchdown.

someone activate the parking brake by accident?

I suppose it’s possible but it’s not like it’s near anything you’d normally touch. Although I guess it’s still the most likely, brake issues on the 45 series have tended to be the opposite of locked brakes (brake failure). Guys have been known to mix up the elevator disconnect and parking brake on occasion. Only reason I can think of to touch the parking brake airborne is per the AFM recommendation to cycle it if you’ve taken off of snow/slush in an effort to crack any ice, but even in that case you don’t want to rotate the handle and lock it in place just pull and release a couple times.

There was a jetBlue A320 that landed with the parking brake on at SMF. Masked by a FO who would hit “Emer cancel” when taking the AP off. I never understood that.
