Remember MH17 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/…
Not sure why people are so skeptical of phones surviving, they're small robust light chunks of metal/glass. in a crash they'd be flung from the plane from the shockwave alone. If a plane seat (
, flammable etc) can survive a crash it makes perfect sense that a small cage of metal housing memory the size of a thumbnail could make it out. The entire phone doesn't need to be usable only the storage medium.- To be fair MH17 was shot out of the sky, this one flew into a mountain at 400mph. Though it's possible a phone could survive, it's not comparable..set

They are saying this video doesnt actually exist, which wouldnt surprise me since it shocked the hell out of me that a cellphone could survive a crash where they havent found one in tact body. Much harder to break a body into pieces than to bust a phone hitting the ground at 500+ mph.
- Bodies hitting a wall at hundreds of miles an hour turn to mush. A phone is light it bounces, cracks and crumbles, it's feasible a memory card could survive.animatedgif
- Apart from anything, the phone itself could act as an absorptive shield for the memory card.detritus
- Stuffed if it's an iPhone or some none card-taking Android piece of shit, like mine.detritus

- http://www.dailymail… Not sure why... if seats can survive why wouldn't a much smaller robust object (memory card) surviveanimatedgif

looks like a memory card with video survived the crash
http://www.parismatch.com/Actu/I…- can't watch this.bklyndroobeki
- it's not public, but journalist could see it.uan
- Just horrible. I wouldn't want to watch it so I'm glad it's not public.mg33
- prosecutor denied the existence of the video, said the phones weren't examined yet.uan
- FAKE. Video does not exist you troll.marychain
- True or not I wouldn't watch this. Still having a hard time just with the thought of the horror those people went through. :(sea_sea

depression + losing vision + more depression = crazy act
- I think the distinction between depression and psychosis needs to be stressed - half the world shouldn't drive if depression caused this.fadein11
- depressed people are not murderersfadein11

´´pilot wanted people to know his name''
In the news this morning...
Looks like someone doing a killing spree in a school...
- I'd like to know who he associated with and his dr's were and medication. cause the medication is usually the commonality in school shooting and these type ofyurimon
- I'm with Yuri on this one. Why is it so taboo to question whether he was on medications or not? No one is bringing this up.IRNlun6
- I wonder if we will ever manage to ignore the names and history of these maniacs... to prevent copycats who also want to 'become famous'. Fuck !d_gitale
- hard to say what it is true in media.yurimon
- SNA/United doesn't let you fly the craft if you are on any type of mood medications. my bro's a pilot. Not sure about other carriers.lambsy

Pilots who went through all the training and tests have snapped and done this a bunch of times before.
Whats very different about this is how slow the descent was. Normally when a pilot snaps, they put the plane into a straight dive. This guy brought the plane down like he was coming in for a normal emergency landing. That part of this I find really unusual.
- Not really. You decide to kill yourself - do you make your last few minutes calm, or traumatic, for yourself? You choose.detritus
- I think I would end it as quickly as possible. Nose dive. Not extend it over 10 minutes.CygnusZero4
- Every plane suicide ive heard of was nose dived. Never heard of a slower decent to kill themselves before.CygnusZero4
- Maybe he was suffering a mental condition and hallucinated the landing.
Don't people do weird shit too when they have a stroke?dorkKn1ght - So you think there's only ONE way to commit suicide with a plane? And its dive straigth?benfal99
- oh no guys, after 9//11 pilots can't just nose dive a plane, if you want to put it down you have to do it like this, set to landing on a place with mountainsfeel
- I think that's been the case since planes went mostly fly-by-wiredetritus
- instrmntl2
Pilots don't go through all their training to take down a plane. Not only that, they guy was a flight attendant while he went to pilot school to be in the industry. It doesn't add up. People are too quick to point fingers, propagated by 24 hour news stations. It would be a shame to smear this pilots name after his death if he wasn't to blame.
- To be fair..everything that we have been told i.e. audio recording, blackbox box data have all indicated that the plane was deliberately crashed by the copilot.utopian
- no it doesn'tset
- Indeed! Why let evidence, analysis or logic get in the way of a good fantasy?detritus
- Sure, pilots don't do this. This is a first, right? But is it so hard to believe that he became depressed or unwound after he became a pilot?nb
- Not a first...it's happened several times before.marychain
- _niko0
- so far fetched. maybe we'll see this in 100 years.CygnusZero4
- If airlines weren't money grabbing corporations, then maybe this would happen.set
- Airlines want to pack as much people as possible in their plane to rack more cash. Those take way too much space. Maybe for rich people.benfal99
- There is "acceptable loss" in everything, from airplanes to buildings (seismic) - no one will pay for extra safetyformed
- and the purple just doesn't workGnash
- This is what apple should be working on, not a useless watch._niko

- Would have been useless in this case as the 'sane' pilot was locked out.goldieboy
- ^ just thinking that. only useful if theres a mechanical error.CygnusZero4
- problem with that is, it usually only happens on takeoff and landingCygnusZero4
- this would crack the plane in half, because the body is made of aluminiumgeorgesIII
- i think this is more an idea for 50 years from now when shit is being built completely differently.CygnusZero4
- Someone should put this shit on a t-shirt. Save the cheerleader, save the world.detritus
- Great idea, self destruct buttons on airplanes. I know I'd feel a lot safer.Riley

Reports today that he had an ongoing "illness", and kept it secret from the airline. He actually had ripped up medical leave papers, and was cleared to take off work the day of the crash and he dismissed it.

Seriously, is it possible to have parachutes for everyone on a commercial plane? Like in last resort, everyone jump? Or is it too complicated to manage?
- Was just saying this yesterday. I'll take my 0.5% chance at survival, over 0%.dirtydesign
- lots of article about this on the web, here's one: http://gizmodo.com/w…benfal99
- there's lot of article about giant parachutes for the whole plane alsobenfal99
- I'm sure the cost and weight of the parachute would make it near impossible for airlines to do thisgoldieboy
- Can't parachute at 35000 feet bramarychain
- Plus the speed...nomarychain
- two words: DB Cooper._niko
- yeah...never found him..why? cause he died yomarychain
- benfal990
When they say people on board knew only at the very end there were something wrong, they didn't hear the pilot knocking and pounding the door? And they say he may have used an axe... I'm pretty sure people on board knew and feels something bad was happening.
people close to portholes saw the ground coming, that must have been terrible.
- set0
Pilot used axe to try and get back in
- set0
Sounds to me like he simply became unconscious in the cockpit and the whole thing was bad luck. That would explain the calm breathing and why the pilot couldn't get back in.
As someone else stated, even if he wanted to die his breathing would not have been calm had he been awake, knowing he was about to smash into the side of a mountain at 400m/h.

Google Translate from a french news website:
"The co-pilot of the Airbus A320 Germanwings, suspected of deliberately caused the crash of the aircraft in the French Alps, hid he was the subject of a sick leave the day of the accident, Friday the Düsseldorf Parquet"
'The investigators found in his forms of "Detailed sick leave, torn" and also concerned "the day of the incident," the prosecutor said in a statement, without specifying the nature of the "disease."
Andreas Lubitz, suffered from severe depression there six years and was regularly followed medically since, said Friday the German newspaper Bild who had access to official documents.'
- It doesn't look good. I'll give you that.marychain
- um why was he allowed to have 100s of peoples lives in his hands?CygnusZero4
- Prosecutors already? Seems like the airlines are CYA'ing.instrmntl
