    Airplane disaster - Mental Illness issues?

    Airplane

    Speculations?

    My daughter takes those flights all the time as do my ex wife and her cousin and I immediately phoned them to make sure all is okay.

    He had a weird break in his training. I think the answer is somewhere in that time frame.

    And they did not pick that up? Living over there, the Herms (As we Muricans over there call them) are very thorough in everything.

    Hey Dal, did you see where I dissed Facebook and their inept programming? It sucks really on SIMPLE things.

    They knew about the break, and he had to take another test when he returned, but he passed with no problems.

    No. I didn't see that.

    Herms are good at being quiet and nonchalant.

    But man if my daughter or my ex or any of their family was on there, I would be livid right now. Such callous, cowardly act. If you want to die, off yourself, don't take so many innocents with you.

    and therein lies the problem with these people: they aren't thinking anywhere close to rationally, and are often not concerned about others in the least.

    New regulations of having more than 2 people in the cockpit now. Some say have a stewardess in there but a pilot can overcome them unless they are males and have some sort of martial arts ability.

    Also, this news can beholden the terrorist community on how easy you can do this. I am not advocating that it was a terrorist act, but most westerns who want to die do not take others with them by piloting a plane, Bonnie and Clyde or Columbine shootout we see and they had a purpose, but this?

    I think it's a law on American airlines that more than 1 person must be in the cockpit at all times, but it's not practiced 100% internationally (like in this case).

    Unless mental illness is the reason I think it can eventually be linked to some sort of terrorist group.

    I do some work with the school bus industry in Minnesota and I don't know if someone with this purported level of mental illness would be allowed to drive a school bus. I think I'm overstating the case, but don't they monitor these guys on an on-going basis?

    I guess when someone with a mental illness crashes a plane, the focus is on mental illness and not the tool he used

    Why shouldn't the focus be on mental illness?

    I mostly find it an extremely distasteful comparison. This couldn't be more apples to oranges.
