This sounds like a rogue pilot. Terrorism!

Release the pilot's names NOW.

“This sounds like a rogue pilot. Terrorism! Release the pilot’s names NOW”

This flight is starting to have a similar MO as flt MH370.

we’re not at war wth muslims/islam == globull warming exists and it’s man’ fault

Wow!!!, must have been the video that served with distinction.

[randita]

Well, it can’t be blamed on the Amish this time. They don’t fly or travel on airplanes.

So might this be the first crash involving the reinforced cockpit doors required after 9/11?

If so, this isn’t the way it was supposed to work out (but then that’s true of most regulations).

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Clearly terrorism.

[ArcadeQuarters]

Sounds like a bad case of Muslim Pilot Syndrome.

Is the NY Times a credible news source?

[gaijin]

why didn’t he Kamikaze it into a stadium or a large building..?

He didn’t PLAN it..?

They’ll use that —they’ll say:

“Hey, if it really was terrorism, why would his target end up being a SNOWY HILL, huh...?!”

Maybe he was on a time-table and he feared higher chance of SHOOT-DOWN..?

:/

CNN (Anderson Cooper) debating why there is no camera in the cockpit.

[Libs have a love for cameras. They seem to think that is the answer to everything. Recall the same debate for police to wear cameras after Ferguson.]

A camera would probably not have changed anything that happened either in Ferguson or on the aircraft.

Pilot of doomed Flight 4U 9525 jet was ‘locked out of cockpit before crash’, black box recorder reveals

At some point during the flight, one of the pilots left the cockpit. It is not yet clear why.

The source said that the pilot who left the cockpit is then heard ‘knocking lightly on the door’ but there is no answer.

The pilot continues to hit the door with more force but ‘there is never an answer’.

He said: ‘You can hear he is trying to smash the door down.’

I got to see a profile of the decent today, it was rather constant.

If the pilot had a health issue, unless something massive, you'd a think he'd call for help from the crew, or call a mayday

Remember, these Airbus's are side sticks so their is nothing to fall on if he is incapacitated...

Where does that leave us...

Two of my adult children are leaving on Monday to spend two weeks in Japan. Stuff like this makes me quite nervous.

If the locked-out pilot was recorded yelling and pounding on the door trying to get in, that would suggest there was no sudden decompression accident.

Could be he was just in the middle of something. (I know...tasteless)

Have not read thru all the responses but isn't it standard procedure that if a pilot leaves the cockpit a flight attendant is in the cockpit until the absent pilot returns.
No pilot is left alone in control of the aircraft while in flight.
