The latest revelations over Germanwings flight 4U9525 crash have turned the focus on the pilots, but the German budget carrier has so far refused to identify them.
One of the pilots was locked out of the cockpit moments before the crash, the data from the cockpit voice recorder has reportedly revealed, placing the pilots at the focal point of the investigation.
However, the company has refrained from disclosing the identity of the pilots.
According to the New York Times , data showed the pilot inside the cabin ignored the appeals of his colleague to open the cabin door. As time lapsed the pilot tried to smash the door but failed to get through -- all this happening during the ominous few minutes before the crash that killed 150 people.

Does anyone get the EgyptianAir Flight 990 deja vu?
That flight, according to NTSB, crashed by the deliberate action of the co-pilot with no evidence of mechanical failure.
Recall that its cockpit recorder revealed that seconds after the pilot excused himself to go to the toilet, the co-pilot began his dirty deed - all the time repeating Islamic prays.
Allah Akbar all over again?!
5$ will get you ten if it was not a raghead.
The Germans don’t want to lose the tons of cash they will be paying in lawsuits after this crash. Germans never want to lose money.
But we want the name of the pilot in the cockpit who flew the plane into the mountain.
They don't dare. It goes against the political/cultural narrative, and they have proven it's death or worse to defy them.
The French have been the most critical to Obummer’s coveted treaty with Iran. Probably just wanted to encourage them to play or pay.
Ominous few minutes?
They should try 18 minutes total as they tried to batter the door in.
That is a long time to be aware that the guy at the stick is up to no good.
Yes, I’m recalling EgyptAir 990.
And they tried to sit on that info for awhile too.
Press Conference coming up on the BBC.
So why even hire those guys?
As I understand it, Germanwings is just one of those regional “partners” to the bigger Lufthansa - if this is a name with a lot of m’s and a’s in it, I would think it would be in Lufthansa’s best interest to get that out of the way and just throw Germanwings under the bus.
Because as we know, those Germans don’t like to admit any kind of mechanical or engineering failure....
Someone here reported that the captain was in the cockpit, not the copilot. If he’s alone in there it’s suicide? Maybe someone else gained entry.
Another thread listed the first names no last names due to privacy laws...Names not typical Muslim IF that info correct. Patrick and something like Andreas
Co-pilot was alone in the cockpit and manipulated flight monitoring systems. (From the BBC presser)
Might deserve its own thread?
Not sure if this is terrorism. Here's the reason: It makes no sense that there is some slow descent into the mountain....especially with one pilot trying to break the door down.
If this was a jihadi...he wouldn't need to lock the door and bolt himself in. Once the other pilot leaves to go pee (or whatever caused him to leave), you disengage the autopilot and you push the yoke forward...that way's there is no POSSIBILITY of recovery even if the other pilot manages to get into the cockpit.
If this is a jihadist...why the gradually plunge? 3000'/min is a pretty steep descent but if I want to kill everyone on board...it would not be 3K/min...it would be 30k/min and we'd be done.
If your bent on killing everyone...why take you time and ruin the risk of being thwarted?
Nothing but the sound of breathing from the cockpit till the crash.
Being of muslim faith should make a person ineligible for piloting a plane or even driving a truck. They are dangerous people. Even the “nice” ones. It’s all about Taqiyya.

Violent knocking on the cockpit door.
The airlines, TSA, and gov’t authorities have all of our personal and banking information, not to mention the obligatory pat down prior to boarding. Maybe in return we should be entitled to a complete bio on the pilots, co-pilots, and ground crew as well.
Will be interesting to see. When I first heard about the pilot being locked out of the cockpit, and nothing but silence in reply, I sort of figured heart attack or something like that. Then I heard the names not being released - my radar, like others’ - was perked up.
