Germanwings Plane Crash: Sabotage!

CO-PILOT DELIBERATELY CRASHED AIRCRAFT … 

|| By FITSNEWS ||  Ready for this?  A Germanwings plane which crashed in the French Alps earlier this week – killing all 150 people on board – was deliberately steered to its destruction by its co-pilot.

“The intention was to destroy this plane,” French prosecutors alleged.

According to French officials, the co-pilot – a German citizen named Andreas Lubitz – locked the plane’s captain out of the cockpit and pressed a button putting the airliner into a dive pattern.

The Airbus A320 was en route from Barcelona to Dusseldorf when it disappeared off the radar.  Its wreckage was later located near Digne les Bains, in the French Alps.

“He was breathing normally, he did not utter a single word,” French prosecutor Brice Robin told reporters.

“There is no element to indicate this is a terrorist action,” Robin added, saying Lubitz’s actions were “calm” and “voluntary” – even as the knocks on the cabin door (and the cries from panicked passengers) grew louder.

Wow …

Twenty minutes into the flight, the plane’s captain left the cockpit to use the restroom.  That’s when Lubitz locked him out of the cabin and began the jet’s fatal descent.  The captain and co-pilot spoke “amicably” during the twenty minutes leading up to the former’s bathroom break – with no indication anything was amiss.

So … what happened?

French officials say Lubitz, 27, “is not known as a terrorist, absolutely not.”  According to the Aviation Business Gazette, he was recognized two years ago by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as a member of its prestigious “Airmen database,” meaning he had “met or exceeded the high educational, licensing and medical standards established by the FAA.”

“We owe it to the traveling public to have only the most qualified and best trained pilots,” U.S. Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx said in promoting the database.

In fact according to the Aviation Business Gazette, “Transportation safety experts strongly recommend against flying with an uncertified pilot,” adding “FAA pilot certification can be the difference between a safe flight and one that ends in tragedy.”

They surrender too quickly.

Really? Like the French LIght Infantry Division that secured the left flank of the 82nd Airborne in Desert Storm. Currently France has 12,000 troops deployed into active combat operations in several areas in Africa. Another 8,000 in multi-national peace keeping roles. And thank goodness they didn’t “surrender too quickly” at Yorktown in 1781, else we’d still be drinking tea at 4 p.m. every day instead of Starbucks.

Timmy Tebow March 26, 2015 at 10:16 am

Yeah, until we kicked their asses in the quasi war!!!

Rocky March 26, 2015 at 11:23 am

What war was that? I’m thinking and can’t come up with it. Let’s see, War of 1812? Nope. Civil War? Nope. Ah, Spanish-American War – nope that was Spain. WWI – Nope. WWII – Nope? Korea – Nope? Vietnam – Nope? (BTW they lost that one, as did we) Gulf War – nope? Please enlighten me again?

Timmy Tebow March 26, 2015 at 12:41 pm

No. You enlighten yourself. I can’t enlighten you.

Rocky March 26, 2015 at 1:03 pm

OK looked it up. Seemed mainly a fight against French pirates. Didn’t end in French defeat. Ended when Napolean became leader and he signed a deal. I’ll stick with Sparklecity’s comments.

sparklecity March 26, 2015 at 12:03 pm

yep – good points
Plus I’d pay some bucks for smart-assed dicks like “Timmy Tebow” to talk that kind of smack face to face with French Legionaires or some of the French Special Ops I flew around in Gulf I & II – they don’t fuck around.
Mano to Mano those guys could kick Navy Seals asses day in-day out.

Given the avionics systems of modern first world aircraft (MD, Boeing, Embrar, Airbus) – seems like most accidents today are truly suicide runs. Gets me thinking Malaysian airline a year ago went the same way. Seems to have started in 1996 off Long Island. In other words, only way to crash a modern aircraft, most times, is to do it on purpose.

Yes, Rocky, I agree with you. The world now is a much more dangerous place and with hidden agendas…innocent die.

I disagree. me thinks germans now hated in europe and therefore sabotage to more airplanes to come, am not sure but this american here thinks that is the problem…get it?

I think that Germany right now is not very popular in Europe. Look at Portugal, Spain, Greece, the entire south europe…all in bad shape economically, and they blame the Germans, does not surprise me if this was reprisal for what is going on.

Timmy Tebow March 26, 2015 at 10:27 am

Why do they blame Germany for their problems?

Reply
unwinding time March 26, 2015 at 10:36 am

No blame whatsoever. I think that southern europe is very poor and riddled with corruption. Germany is the opposite organize and diligent. Germany is an example for the world. But this is what happens with disparity in economic strata of countries. I fear for more planes to fall, I hope i am wrong, but I have a hunch. cheers

I’m not following you, a German citizen is meting out reprisals by crashing planes for the rest of Europe?

Its like the Manchurian candidate. The Greeks and the Spanish found a German to brain wash. They had him crash the plane as retaliation against German success.

By using a brain washed German, and crashing the plane in France, they are doubly clever. The Germans are totally clueless this were being attacked. Sort of like double double secret probation. This was double double secret retaliation.

Look for more of this king of thing to happen.

What?! March 26, 2015 at 3:53 pm

lol…thanks for that explanation. Maybe you should make a novel out of it.

I think screaming “SABOTAGE”!!! is a bit dramatic and incorrect.
Destroying a section of railroad track to derail an Amtrack train or cutting the brake lines on a Greyhound Bus is sabotage.
This guy didn’t sabotage anything, He deliberately flew a perfectly airworthy airplane into a mountain range with ~150 people onboard
