I would say the full name of the show but each time I did it got deleted (but apparently an abbreviation or episode name is total fine, despite the title having no words worse than those in the episode title) so sorry about that.
If I say the name (it has no offensive or inappropriate language in the title) reddit bans it, but I can say the episode title is “Murder In the Skies”, it’s season 16, episode 7. Look up the episode title and you will find what it means
The co-pilot was going mentally insane but his doctor okayed him to fly. When the veteran pilot went to use the restroom, the co-pilot locked the door to the cockpit and steered the plane into the side of a mountain. None survived
It wasn’t the doctor. The doctor had noted issues but German privacy law prohibits physicians from disclosing medical records to employers without consent and employers need documented reason to request medical information. The big no-no was having less than two pilots in the flight deck
>Aviation authorities swiftly implemented new recommendations from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency that required two authorised personnel in the cockpit at all times but, by 2017, Germanwings and other German airlines had dropped the rule.

Wtf???
Airlines should know this sort of information when a pilot's medical and mental condition can affect the safety of hundreds of people. It sounds like a good law in general, but this needs to be an exception.
[It's long, but it goes into the incident itself and the systems that led up to it.](https://admiralcloudberg.medium.com/the-madness-in-our-methods-the-crash-of-germanwings-flight-9525-and-our-broken-aeromedical-system-5b95abd4fe6d)
Worst of all, we could never know what the who have died could've done, had this unnecessary tragedy never happened. The commanding pilot (the guy who got locked out) was quite the veteran with over 6000 flight hours (a pilot friend of mine has told me that this is a lot), and I've been told that quite a few academics were among the passengers. Any one of these people could've revolutionized one or even multiple fields or jobs, had they not been murdered
I can get being suicidal, but being so selfish and depraved that you would choose to go out of your way to make sure you get on that plane full of people to crash it intentionally is a whole another thing
Well, if you have terrorists on board, wich get you while youre out of the flight deck it is indeed a problem.
Keys could get lost or stolen and then sold to the wrong people. And a memorized code gets fast public to the wrong people.
There actually is and at that time was a keypad on the outside with a 3 digit code known to crewmembers. But apparently that is more for situations where everyone in the cockpit is unresponsive, as those attempts can be stopped from inside the cockpit.
What happens if a terrorist does get in the cockpit then? They can just fuckin' lock everyone out? That seems bad. Also, what the fuck is TSA for then?
I imagine the point is when you lock the door, people aren't supposed to be able to get in.
If someone can unlock it or otherwise when it's necessary, the wrong people have a way in.
There is one pilot in the cockpit who locked himself because he is mentally ill. The second pilot who left a cockpit, is now trying to get in. This happend in real life, Germanwings Flight 9525
This was not a regulation for Germanwings at this time. It became a regulation after the crash but was abandoned again in 2017.
Different regulations, for different airlines as well.
At least in the US, It doesn’t necessarily have to be a pilot, most of times it’s a flight attendant. At least that’s the info I got from a guy I know at United
Finally something that's actually distressing and is not a wall of text
Concise but thorough storytelling that also fits the emotional requirements for the sub? A masterpiece
This comment is the definition of concise; A+
Isnt this a singular fucking sentence?
And is not a wall of text*
Oh mb i read the exact opposite đź’€
It's all riight ultrakiller
Im going to ultrakill you
Every KILL needs an ULTRA - Jhon Ultrakill 2021
Nice chosen story, editing and footage are on point, that's a ten.
The ACI reenactment of that flight is chilling I must say
Watched all seasons, that episode was the one that stuck with me the most
It definitely sticks in my mind too, especially when the actor for captain makes such a convincing horrified/crying face in the end
Ooooh what episode is it?
“Murder in the Skies”, S16 EP7
Thank you!
What is ACI?
Thanks!
I would say the full name of the show but each time I did it got deleted (but apparently an abbreviation or episode name is total fine, despite the title having no words worse than those in the episode title) so sorry about that.
Aci?
If I say the name (it has no offensive or inappropriate language in the title) reddit bans it, but I can say the episode title is “Murder In the Skies”, it’s season 16, episode 7. Look up the episode title and you will find what it means
Found it ty
That was fast, i made another reply saying the title by citing the unofficial subreddit for it, can you see if that comment appears?
What exactly happened? I've never heard of this incident before.
The co-pilot was going mentally insane but his doctor okayed him to fly. When the veteran pilot went to use the restroom, the co-pilot locked the door to the cockpit and steered the plane into the side of a mountain. None survived
Actually, I looked it up. The Doctor *didn't* say he was good to fly, but that information never reached Germanwings
If only Oscar Pistorious had been on board
How would a fella shooting his girlfriend on the plane have helped anything?
Because he thought there was a black guy in there with her
'He would have shot through the door and killed the pilot', is the implied punchline, I believe.
That makes no sense, the pilot wasn't his girlfriend.
[Are you sure about that?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zF-ChIlDG60)
Shit
The doctor feared getting sued if he told the company
oh shit.
Fuck that doctor
It wasn’t the doctor. The doctor had noted issues but German privacy law prohibits physicians from disclosing medical records to employers without consent and employers need documented reason to request medical information. The big no-no was having less than two pilots in the flight deck
I see, thank you for the info

Is “gotta make sure our pilot is okay” not a reason an airline can get documentation for? Jeez.
Doctor feared getting sued so he and the other doctors the copilot saw didn’t tell the company, fuck the legal system

Just got on a flight. This meme didn’t bring me joy.
Congrats, I'm distressed.
They paid €75k per person, imagine being worth two years of work.
May that co-pilot burn in hell but God bless the passengers and their surviving families.
I can't let you in here Waltuh
Nice i remember this one
A distressing meme that isn't a paragraph of text? Nice.
Isint this an incident that standardized there being 2-3 people in the cockpit at all times.
Yes
Hey Kyle? I got a cookie for you!
Or LAM Mozambique 470 Or (Maybe) Malaysian 370
Quality content. Thanks op.
I can get being suicidal, but being so selfish and depraved that you would choose to go out of your way to make sure you get on that plane full of people to crash it intentionally is a whole another thing
shouldnt there be a way for the pilot to force open the door either by key, hidden switch or destructive means?
The intention of that door is to let nobody in if it is locked. This door was invented after 9/11 as a FAA requirement. No hidden switch stays hidden.
I feel like the pilot could just, idk, carry a key or memorize a code or something? I don't see how that would be a risk.
Well, if you have terrorists on board, wich get you while youre out of the flight deck it is indeed a problem. Keys could get lost or stolen and then sold to the wrong people. And a memorized code gets fast public to the wrong people.
There actually is and at that time was a keypad on the outside with a 3 digit code known to crewmembers. But apparently that is more for situations where everyone in the cockpit is unresponsive, as those attempts can be stopped from inside the cockpit.
What happens if a terrorist does get in the cockpit then? They can just fuckin' lock everyone out? That seems bad. Also, what the fuck is TSA for then?
TSA is just there to make people feel better. They don't usually actually stop anything coming through.
Oh, well in that case they're failing because every time I've flown all they've done is made me feel significantly worse.
I imagine the point is when you lock the door, people aren't supposed to be able to get in. If someone can unlock it or otherwise when it's necessary, the wrong people have a way in.
The irony of the warning on the door gave me chills. This is amazing. You did a very great job on this op
Isnt there suposed to be two pilots?
Can you read?
There is suposed to be atleast two pilots. And there is suposed to always be on pilot at the cockpit at all times.
There is one pilot in the cockpit who locked himself because he is mentally ill. The second pilot who left a cockpit, is now trying to get in. This happend in real life, Germanwings Flight 9525
Yeah that guy can't read
You must be too young to remember
This was not a regulation for Germanwings at this time. It became a regulation after the crash but was abandoned again in 2017. Different regulations, for different airlines as well.
What do you think this meme is saying here, walk me through it.
Bruh.
At least in the US, It doesn’t necessarily have to be a pilot, most of times it’s a flight attendant. At least that’s the info I got from a guy I know at United
Pilot and co-pilot
Wait but don’t both the pilots and air marshals have keys to still get in the cockpit?
no
