I don´t know how you going go about preventing this happing again.

Maybe before any future flights, do a polygraph test on the pilot & ask him if he is going to intentionally crash the plane or not.

Sad state of affairs....but there you go.

It has been suggested that there should be two people in the cockpit at all times.

So you either have three pilots (I think this is the case in the US) or a third person, ie cabin crew, who attends if one of the pilots needs to relieve himself

How they know the pilot never locked the co pilot out

The voice on the black box was of the pilot wanting to get back INTO the flight cabin

While it may be the case that the co-pilot deliberately crashed the plane I still don´t find the little evidence made public so far enough to label a man a mass murderer.

What we know is that the captain was locked out; that he knocked on the door and got no reply; that the recorded message could identify breathing, so the co-pilot was still alive.

Could it not be that he was unconscious or incapacitated? Still breathing but unable to move?

In the absence of a suicide letter or some evidence of psychological problems I remain unconvinced.

making such a rapid descent requires manual intervention (apparently).
Report akabula March 26, 2015 7:45 PM GMT
They are saying that all the current evidence is pointing to a deliberate act.
Report i_agree_with_nick March 26, 2015 7:46 PM GMT
From what I've heard, the way the plane descended indicates that he was in control of the plane.
Report doantwin2easy March 26, 2015 7:51 PM GMT
that's another way of putting it
Report Coachbuster March 26, 2015 7:51 PM GMT
unless there was a reason  to descend (but no message to C/T  )  and no physical or verbal access to pilot .


had he been drinking ?  drugs?  are pilots tested  ?

a row seems the most plausible -  straw and donkeys etc

The reason they say it's deliberate is because he activated the extra locking mechanism on the inside of the door (this is like the equivalent of deadbolting on the inside and putting the chain on), didn't respond, and entered into the autopilot the command to descend.

Tiptheodds above is spot on.....

The media have yet again shown their venomous colours.

The copilot may be guilty but how a government official can hang draw and quarter a guy whilst also saying not all facts are known is a disgrace.

Politicians and Journalists: 5cum of the earth

He had a duty to comment on it and reported what the evidence is pointing towards.
He will be under constant pressure from relatives of those who died who will be demanding answers.
Report Racingqueen March 26, 2015 9:04 PM GMT
He has a duty to state facts when the investigation is completed. no more no less.
Especially when all he is doing is interpreting incomplete facts
Report akabula March 26, 2015 9:17 PM GMT
So you would deny the relatives and loved ones of those who died transparency.
All he has done is say what the evidence is pointing to.
Report geordie1956 March 26, 2015 9:21 PM GMT
I don't think there is a completely fail safe system unfortunately to eliminate all risk but whilst the evidence reviewed is seemingly pointing to the co pilot we should wait until all evidence is properly evaluated before we vilify him as is happening within the media
