So most commercial pilots will have a crash then? Stop making stuff up.
I don't know if the fact is true - but you're stating that commercial pilots fly every day...?johnxjsc1985 said:
Watching Sky News with the presenter talking to a variety of experts hoping just one of them will mention the "T" word.
everyone seems to be avoiding THAT subject, for the time being....and there we go.
We may be in a process of being prepared for even worse news.....

my thoughts go out to the poor sods who have to now go there and recover the bodies etc. What a job, the scene that awaits them must be beyond imagination.
Trainee airmen from RAF Halton etc were used for the Lockerbie cleanup, imagine that as a young lad straight out of school, unbelievable2013BRM said:

I don't know how they do it.It would be beyond my level of tolerance for gore.looking around the internet for more information is depressing as some of the comments confirm this is a sick world.
Very sad. As some have said, it looks like the crew may have been incapacitated, it started descending as it passed over the French coast - disappearing some ten minutes later, having not changed course, in the mountains. However, the plane did level off just before crashing. The emergency message/alert seems to have been sent after the crash and possibly from ATC and not the aircraft itself.

That though was a genuine case of what has been seen can not be unseen.
RIP to all those who have lost their lives. Another sobering reminder that no matter how small there are always risks in any form of travel, it's just we hardly ever truly think about it.

they are saying no survivors is that an educated guess or a fact?.
Heute.de are quoting 'Traffic secretary' Alain Vidalies as saying no survivors.Also saying many German exchange schoolchildren onboard
Update: 16 children and two teachers from Westphalia were booked on the flight
