Some already, apparently do, even on the infamous MH370:

Agony of the wife whose husband gave her his wedding ring and watch before boarding missing flight MH370 'in case something should happen to him'

• *Paul Weeks was on the missing flight as he made his way to new job
• *Before leaving he had taken 'lots of photos' of his family, his wife has said
• *She said he left her his wedding ring and watch in case something happened

MH370 search: Government streamlines investigation team, ongoing efforts

“As per ICAO standards, Malaysia will also appoint an independent ‘investigator-in-charge’ to lead an investigation team and the team will include three groups,” Acting Transport Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussien said in a press conference Sunday.

The three groups will comprise an airworthiness group, which will look into maintenance records, structure and system of the airline; an operational group, which will examine flight recorders operations and meteorological aspects of the investigation, as well as a medical and human factor group, which will look into psychological and pathological aspects as well as survival factors of those on board the plane.

So that’s what they mean by “streamlining” —

It’s about to go from bad to worse — before it’s over the pilot’s role in this may be all but forgotten.
