German Wings A320 crashed

The short story The Depressed Person by David Foster Wallace comes to mind.

Thanks. I'll have to check that out. Something also that I didn't consider was that maybe these issues just aren't as widely reported in minority communities. Many minorities, especially the poor don't believe in counseling as a rule, saying that it's for rich white people with too much time on their hands. Or other idiotic statements like depression is a white man's disease, and learn to just compartmentalize their feelings/emotions.
 
So I guess no one knows, or bothers to distribute, the key code to the door that most manufacturers have built into the airplane, FOR JUST THIS REASON! Seems like a very foolish move if you ask me. IIRC, if you enter the code on the keypad, you are getting in the cockpit, no matter what the guys up front do. And yes, that may seem like a bad thing, but in todays society, I seriously doubt anyone will ever take over an airplane, a-la 9-11.

That's not factually correct. Time for recurrent?
 
Sadly not the first time a pilot has done something with a plane. Few years ago a SKW guy took a plane in SGU. A GOOD mental health reform is needed.

True... Not to mention the drunk Frontier pilot that crashed his Aerostar last year. That was one heck of a read.
