That’s what I don’t understand. Do they just ignore the passengers when they want to just commit suicide? Seems hard to believe a professional pilot would not have the passengers in mind. Otherwise you need someone who is both suicidal and with psychopathic murderous pulsions, which should be extremely rare. But clearly it’s not. Like for school shootings, I wonder how much one event inspires the next one.
- MBCook 4y agoYes. Look up the German Wings case, flight 9525. In short one pilot waited for the other to leave the cockpit, locked the door, and deliberately crashed the plane. He was so suicidal and distraught (thought he was going blind and thus would lose his job) he was willing to do it. If you read the full story it’s even sadder.

- rkk3 4y agoAnd just like school shootings, that German pilot studied MH370. The MH370 pilot likely did the same thing. He was separated from his wife & at his house they found he practiced the crash route on Microsoft Flight simulator.
- MBCook 4y agoReally? I didn’t know that part. I knew that psychiatrists had told him to stop flying while things were so bad, which he obviously ignored. I didn’t know he had prepared like that though.
