TERROR? Unexplained 8-Minute Plunge w/ NO SOS has GermanWings Pilots Refusing to Fly...

The Airbus operated by Lufthansa's budget airline 'GermanWings' that crashed in the French Alps yesterday made no radio contact whatsoever for the entire 8 minutes was roaring straight into the mountains (from 32,000 ft)... add to that the fact that no apparent effort was made to override computer controls, the German pilots' experience, the airline's perfect safety record... you can see why the other pilots would now like an explanation before they drag another 150 people to a horrific death.
The pilots were likely either unconscious, bound, or dead- those are pretty much the only logical conclusions.
If it was the A320 fly-by-wire computer controls issue, they could have over-rode it with manual controls at some point in the crisis.
The plane made a controlled descent at full speed into a mountain while issuing no distress signal- does that sound like mechanical failure to you?
Yes, 'terrorism' is mere speculation at this point... but the Obama regime didn't wait to issue their wild-ass-guess, and I'm not the only one thinking it:
An expert for the Polish State News Agency just said:
A terror attack is very likely a cause for the Germanwing A320 crash.
A German pilot told Russian RT News a terror attack and an explosion in the rear craft of the aircraft is possible. Pilots may have been unconcious, otherwise they would have not started a descent maneuvering this aircraft into a mountain region.
In November, the computer sensor system caused an Airbus 320 to go out of control. Computers may have been able to overwrite the control for this aircraft.
Some Germanwing pilots are refusing to fly the A320 due to safety concerns and some non-confirmed reports say flights for the Lufthansa-owned airline were cancelled because of it.
Of course, the agenda-driven Obama White House couldn't wait to tell us it 'doesn't appear terror related'... meaning it doesn't fit their bizarre
pro-Muslim/surrender to terror zeitgeist. Or maybe they just don't want to acknowledge the dangerous world created by misguided US policy over the last 6 years.
And maybe Obama's dopey press secretary can try and explain how they know more than investigators, the Germans, etc- just hours after the event,
just by looking at some photographs online... please

It's impossible to update the software once the thing ships?
Some of it. What you are referring to is firmware type software though, and is normally only revised with new hardware.
For nav databases etc., it has a special data port. The built-in checksum makes sure it is from the manufacturer and is valid.

So you pick out 1 little exception? This was apparently part of a bigger plot, and a trial run (guy seemed to like live trials).
A guy who actually was in on the big splashy event called the WTC bombing?
You just proved my point.

I would agree—but what if the leak happened in the cockpit area? That means the loss of cabin pressure at the worst place possible—and the flight crew may have been incapacitated even faster than normal.

Kind of tough to envision a scenario where a very professional flight crew flies an modern, highly redundant Airbus into the ground in a conventional in flight emergency situation without communication for a full 8 minutes.
Especially when they knew they were over the Alps.
Now they say they have lost the last several minutes of in flight data recording on data recorders specifically designed to capture and record the last several minutes on any in flight emergency
I could envision a problem with the pitot static system commanding a slow descent from the autopilot but for 8 minutes without communication?

WTC bombing is no exception.
Poor example. The guy was part of a huge ring of conspiracy.

“I cant make out the question that the reporter asked...also the YouTube site does not show the question that was asked???? Just ?”
I asked that same question twice, but didn’t get an answer. I’m not sure what the point of the youtube video was.

OOps, “De Havilland Comet”
Air Comet was an airline, the Comet was a nice aircraft that had square windows leading to the aircraft disintegrating in flight.
