No. It looks like the co-pilot was having serious mental problems including severe depression and suicidal thoughts.

He told his employer and they cleared him to fly! I don’t know what the liability laws in Europe, France or Germany are, but they are so screwed it is unbelievable. 150 people dead because they didn’t ground a pilot who told them he was suicidal.

I concur that Mad Mo is very unlikely. Too bad.....

I’ve been away from this story for a couple days. Is this for real, he TOLD Lufthansa that he was suicidal, and they LET him fly this plane??????? What a law suit, what a lawsuit. OMG. Families lost their high schoolers... I wouldn’t care about the money if my kid were on the plane, I’d just want to finish that airline off.
