Looks like it was suicide:

Findings are preliminary, although the evidence is pointing to suicide. I don't know why you are in such a hurry to tell us bad news that we can find out on our own. Every news channel in the world is broadcasting this.

tests for pilots to assess their mental state before each flight.
Great, that would add another two hours waiting about before each flight. Pilots do have regular medical tests for both physical and mental health, but doing it before each flight would be totally impractical.
That was just one (impractical) solution :-( There may be other ways, wouldn't they?

They'll probably make it mandatory to have 2 people in the cockpit at all times. At the moment it's not, though some airlines do practice this.

You could make the same statement for about 80% of the posts in the lounge.

I was just reading that some airlines keep crowbars or axes outside the cockpit to get in during an emergency. Kind of seems to negate the locking doors to keep terrorists out in that case. I think - unfortunately - that flight is always going to be a (low) risk activity. If you don't accept the risks then don't fly (I'm guessing that most people don't really consider the risks).

Suicide is killing yourself. What he did was not suicide. It was a mass murder in which he also died.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.
Isn't that terrorism?

Not necessarily. I've no idea why he did this. Terrorism is doing something (or threatening to do something) with the aim of making people afraid. He has made lots of people afraid, but unless it turns out he has done it as part of some larger organisation then I don't see much point in being afraid of him anymore.

It was. Such a shocking thing to do. Why oh why would someone, a European, without the insanity caused by Islam, want to do this.

Me, all the timeWe English like to think back to the times when our terrorists were Irish with a sort of wistful nostalgia. Back when the pubs blew up in Birmingham however people were throwing nooses over anything that would hold them and looking for anyone with an Irish accent to string up.

Yup. I'd class it in with the school shootings/suicides.

But then how do you keep three burly terrorists out? I think a solution for one scenario precludes the other.

It does, but if crow bars and axes can get in, then 340 kgs of meat doing 20 mph is too.

Why, if you're unhappy with life and want to die, do people feel the need to kill everyone around them at the same time.
Andreas Lubitz was the pilots name. Isnt that first name Greek....
