The TSA does not require any ID from 16-year-olds:

"Q.. What ID is needed for minors traveling domestically/internationally?
A.. Minor children (younger than 18) are not required to provide an ID at the airport security checkpoint..They will just need their boarding pass."

However, Allegiant requires that a 16-year-old travel with his/her birth certificate. Southwest requires proof of age (such as a birth certificate).
The problem is that there's always a possibility that the TDC will decide that she looks 18 and ID is required.
