    And, as usual, you would be wrong.

    Not really. You seems to be very happy this turned out to be something other than Islamic terroris attack... For me it's just an exception from the rule. Worry not, Islamic terrorists will strike again and soon. They always do.

    I fail to see any reason why anyone desiring to commit suicide would choose to take out 150 innocents along with themselves unless they had a pernicious belief that this would somehow be sanctioned by "God".

    Additionally, a secret plot could explain the long-lasting depression, which was evident even during the copilot's training.

    Even if there were no actual plot, the Islamic jihadists' destructive ideas are out there, for any mentally ill person to respond to. In that sense, they may still, if in no other way, be responsible, which has been their intent all along: to corrupt public discourse and make happenings like this more likely.

    [It is for similar reasons that I still hold Palin partly responsible for what happened to Gifford.]

    Are you saying that someone of no faith could not have done something as extreme as this?

    Also, if I follow your logic re Jihadists being responsible for the attack, even if they were not responsible. Would it then be safe to say that The German's who dropped the first incendiary devices from zeppelins over London, a hundred years ago in 1915, were the ones who were responsible for all the aerial bombardments that followed in the 20th century?

    Its documented that people with severe depression and suicide ideas forget everything including own relatives; sometimes they even kill them as well because they cant see how they could live in such a world.

    The flight from Barcelona, Spain, to Düsseldorf, Germany, is only a couple of hours. The co-pilot couldn't have planned for the pilot to take a lavatory break. He saw an opportunity and took advantage of being left by himself in the cockpit. There was no suicide note or statement to be made, this was a very mentally ill man who somehow managed to fool his employers and co-workers he was fit to fly.

    We try to make sense of things, but in this instance there is no rationality to this sort of action. 149 other souls on board that aircraft died for no other reason than one man's severe mental illness. A man who had the capacity to instruct the autopilot to begin a descent into the side of a mountain...with no one there who could stop it in time.

    Those evil mosssssslems are responsible for everything bad that happens. As I said previously, I'm really glad that Bibi won the election because it helps focus the minds of those who oppose Islamophobia and Jewish extremist racism that supporters of him like you represent.

    I think it’s a case similar to the missing Malaysia airliner MH370, the shooting down of MH17. It’s a push on German to join a war with Russia in Ukraine. We could see the same push on French in Paris Hebdo attack recently.

    I'm following German newspaper Bild and what I understand is that Lufthansa has showed a very lack of efficiency in controlling its personnel.

    I don't care a nut if Lubitz was Muslim or Buddhist. Who cares? The problem is that Lufthansa allowed a person with mind disturbs to serve in the cockpit of civilian flights.

    Ehi, guys at Lufthansa! You've got something to explain us!

    I think there will always be the risk of having a metally unstable pilot or co-pilot slip through a psychological test, no matter how thorough those tests are. What I wondered about was: why the hell is there no rule in place that requires 2 persons in the cockpit at all times, like US airlines have been doing it for years? I boarded airplanes in the last couple of years in the deepest conviction that things like one crew member being locked out of the cockpit by another are impossible.

    By the way, Luke, it is understood that reading "Bild" has never helped anyone to understand anything ;)
    They tend to mistake wild speculation for real journalism.

    :oldman:Es ist klar! [It's clear], that Bild is not a reliable source, anyway, speaking German I like to read it sometime, overall in cases like these when rumors can be useful [and Bild is master in collecting rumors!:clapping:]. You know, when it's time to make a profile of an individual also free impressions from neighbors can say something.

    Regarding the rule about at least two members of the crew always in the cockpit ... eh, in EU wasn't a rule [now the EU authorities for the control of air traffic are introducing it].

    Considering also that the toilet of the crew on an airbus is next to the door of the cockpit [I know because it happens I travel on airbus in first class], and that the crew doesn't mind if passengers use it ... [some airlines reserve that toilet to the crew, this should be a general rule too, in may opinion: add a toilet :toilet: for first class passengers and that's all].

    On Italian TV news they say that Lufthansa knew about the psychological troubles of Herr Lubitz ... and they allowed him to enter a cockpit???

    Should this be a motivation to ban Lufthansa flights from the airspace of our countries?

    He informed them he had a depression a while ago before he re-started training .

    If you think he is the only pilot/train or bus conductor who has had a depression ...


    Why?

    Do you have something against lufthansa?
