Who spends the last 14 seconds of their life willingly videoing? Probably someone who could see what was happening and wanted to record evidence just in case it survived and might help bring some consolation to surviving relatives and resolution to investigators.

What's the flight crew of the A380 with 800+ consist of?
And Opinions when something like this happens to one of them?

You can write off Germanwings/Lufthansa! Not in a million years. Lufthansa is the national airline of Germany and is supported by the German Government. They have a great record when it comes to flight safety and this one sicko ain't going to bring them down. It's sophomoric to believe that they will go out of business over this.

This is another case where a muslim crashed a plane. Islam is not a religion which does not tolerate any other religion. You either join islam or die.

People can't seem to get past the idea that some folks go off the rails and kill other folks. There is no way to prevent it, only hope you aren't there when they do go off the rails, or be able to put a bullet in them when they do.
It really is as simple or difficult as that.. Better screening of crews might help, as might always having two people on the flight deck at all times, but at the end of the day, sadly these things can be extremely difficult to predict and/or prevent.

This is what occurred to me as well. Reports are that it shows the final 14 seconds of people screaming and freaking out from the back of the cabin. Some consolation and/or resolution if that is correct. I'd like to think its someone with the level of pragmatism to catch some helpful information but I wonder if it could be so. Unless the person is recording a message to loved ones and just happened to catch everyone else freaking out, they are almost as removed from human interaction as the co-pilot.

What ever might come out of these latest investigations, this time it might have been prevented with going back to a 3 man flight crew or something as simple as having a flight stewardess stay in the cock pit until the pilot returned, anything that put more than a lone pilot in the cockpit.
Phil In the U.S., you have to have two people in the cockpit at all times (even if one person is just a flight attendant). Not so in Europe. That is one regulation that will be changed as a result of this incident.

Glad that locked cockpit door worked. Much more effective than doing away with security to enure passengers are disarmed.

Public outraged with Lufthansa CEO after early reports that Germanwings airline pilot or co-pilot was 100% flight ready. Talk now is he the Lufthansa CEO will have to step down even after apology's. And could be that the shuttle Germanwings may not come out of this.
