Would I be correct in assuming that, with the captain absent from the cockpit, there would still be two people presnt? Or is it at all possible that the co-pilot was in there on his own? Surely not?
I ask because, presumably, the door can only be opened from the inside and it would be ridiculous to leave one person locked inside at any time in case they suffered some sort of seizure. |

New york Times & Cnn reporting......
Investigators trying to determine what caused the crash of Germanwings Flight 9525 have made a startling discovery in an audio recording, according to a New York Times report: One of the plane's pilots was locked out of the cockpit before the crash. "You can hear he is trying to smash the door down," a senior military official involved in the investigation told the newspaper, describing audio from the cockpit voice recorder, one of the plane's black boxes. "We don't know yet the reason why one of the guys went out," the official said, according to the Times' report. "But what is sure is that at the very end of the flight, the other pilot is alone and does not open the door." Lufthansa spokesman Klaus Gorny said the company has no information about the report but is looking into it. The Times' report is a "terribly shocking revelation," CNN aviation analyst Peter Goelz said. But he and other experts cautioned that it's still unclear what could have been going on inside the cockpit. Possibilities range from a medical emergency to something more nefarious, CNN aviation correspondent Richard Quest said. French authorities revealed Wednesday that they'd been able to access audio from the recorder, even though its external casing was damaged. |

Do they have their own toilet in the cockpit

no ^

Health and Safety issue, he went outside for a smoke.

Wonder if other passengers were helping to smash down the door. Sounds like a horror film scenario.
|
|
By:
why did the other pilot not open the door?
|
|
By:
Unknown Bhoys. Investigators are not sure which pilot was locked out.
|
|
By:
finding the door and door controls in that wreckage,be some Job. pilot suicide, one of pilots taken unwell at controls,passenger entered the cockpit... All shocking scenario if this news is confirmed.

Any rumours that #4U9525 pilot was Anning Wong are incorrect. He is a virtual pilot on an online simulator called Vatsim. Not real.

therhino.......you would have thought that would be the sensible thing to do.........they must have considered this scenario

By:
Looking more and more like `suicide choice` by the pilot according to aviation experts.
He was quite a new employee by all accounts. |
|
By:
ag........how old was he??

makes it even worse for victims families

By:
Horrible last few minutes knowing your flight is now doomed.
Obviously a lot of speculation, but pilot suicide or pilot suddenly became unwell look very likely, rather wait for the facts. |
|
By:
unwell unlikely
|

By:
It's seems foolish leaving a pilot alone at the controls and locked in.
That should have been covered. I hope it's not usual practice to leave one pilot locked in by themselves. |

Names of pilots rumored to be Patrick Sonderheimer with co-pilot Andreas Lubitz - No formal confirmation yet. #germanwings

By:
Illness was very unlikely, they said, because a conscious decision must have been made to place the aircraft on a gentle downward trajectory.
No idea on the age or any other personal details on the co pilot. |
|
By:
Surely the pilot locked out would name the other pilot when was trying to gain access? Knowing the aircraft was going down he would know the recorder would record. The authorities must know who was in the cockpit and who was outside, just not saying yet.

Or for some medication ?............if theres tapping on the door noise theres voice recordings..............

By:
Seems some airlines follow the `must be 2 crew in cockpit at all times` and some don`t.
|

By:
They probably know a bit more than what they have disclosed so far (?)

Time for air marshals on all flights
|

By:
An expert on the radio yesterday said that what he thought was so strange was that the official french statement EARLY was no survivers.......how did they know that at that time he wondered
|
|
By:
What happens if Air Marshal goes nuts,shoots pilots?
|
|
By:
When a plane crashes into a mountain at 500mph I dont think its strange to say theres no survivors
|
|
By:
How do you know that there is only one aboard?
|
|
By:
Would the marshals carry guns?
|
|
By:
Lubitz....that's a muslim name, isn't it?
|
|
By:
Read yesterday when they revealed the pilots air experience that the co-pilot was quite young (22 or 25), obviously highly qualified but thats v young to man a plane with 150 people on board, imo.

IF we end up going down that road Leopard............NO ONE will fly wiv a Muslim pilot
|
|
By:
More likely Jewish Leopard.
