Pretty much. I saw the threads in the reverse order and :smirk:ed at that, too.

Apparently can hear the pilot trying to knock down the door after getting locked out whilst the co pilot made inputs for the descent

However, passengers could be heard screaming just before the crash, he added.

Yep, same here. I was flying back from a shoot yesterday, and the pilot kept dipping the nose throughout the flight. I don't know why he was doing it, but it was completely unpleasant. It gave that exact same feeling in the stomach as being on a roller coaster as it goes over the lip of a big drop. It was terrifying, and I can now feel the beginnings of a slight fear of flying.

this was my flight from NYC two weeks ago. imagine a bunch of weird noises and sporadic rapid deceleration to get the full effect.

Yeah, I mean, I'm just looking at that and trying to fathom how you could ever contemplate flying again after going through that.

Just unbelievable, is it a lightening storm or something?

those are the lights within the cabin. possibly an electrical hickup of some kind. I cant imagine the weather outside could affect those types of conditions inside...not necessarily. Would freak me out. but I personally love flying. Then again I'm the kind of moron who would get on a motorcycle.

I used to love flying, but I'm very sensitive and any motion of the plane unsettles me so I can't relax/sleep. Any time the plane pitches, yaws, or buffets, my stomach clenches. Flew in a really shitty thunderstorm from Sri Lanka to Bangkok the night the Air Asia plane crashed, and every time we hit turbulence the Muslim guy next to me started praying loudly. I need to load up on valium for my next flight.

Germanwings co-pilot Andreas Lubitz appears to have hidden evidence of an illness from his employer and had been excused by a doctor from work the day he crashed a passenger plane into a mountain, prosecutors said Friday.... Prosecutors didn't say what type of illness — mental or physical — Lubitz may have been suffering from. German media reported Friday that the 27-year-old had received prolonged treatment starting in 2008 for a "serious depressive episode."

once years ago hit a thunderstorm over the Pacific between Sydney and Honolulu and it didn't faze me at all; last year a short flight to Prague in perfect summer weather put me on edge

fear of flying is all about being fully conscious of the fact that you're 6 miles above the ground in an aluminium tube and any serious system failure will 100% result in your death

Stop it. Just stop. I've got half a dozen flights in the next couple months, and I'd like to not have a nervous breakdown...

Ever considered what happens to the human body when it smashes into the side of a mountain at 700 km/h?

Google: "what happens to the body after a airplane crash", and you'll see the aftermath in pictures.

You wouldn't even have to hit the ground to die, explosive decompression and vacuum exposure could kill you.
