“how you dont understand how easily it is to become disoriented and distracted in the cockpit of a complex aircraft.”
For 8 minutes??? I am starting to doubt your claims of knowing how to fly.

A Spiegel reporter, Matthias Gebauer, is tweeting that friends of Lubitz said he had burnout or depression in 2009 and had to take time out from his pilot training. During the Lufthansa press conference there were questions as to why Lubitz interrupted his training, but there were no definitive answers.

You still haven't read the previous accident reports of the A320, have you? IOW, just talking out your ass again? If you are fighting to gain control of the aircraft 8 minutes can seem like a split second when you are disoriented, just like a split second in an emergency can seem like an eternity. The military refers to it as "situational awareness".
I am amused at the ignorance of the comments of people who aren't pilots and have zero flight experience, though, particularly with a complex aircraft. Keep 'em coming!
