Bingo. This could be the end of jumpseating as we know it. I really hope that he did not use CASS to access the secure area.

What a moronic reply.

Pilots are not better than rampers, flight attendants, gate agents, truck drivers, etc, beleive me!

ANYONE CAN BECOME A [AIRLINE] PILOT. ANYONE!

This 'pilot' proved that to you!

And he was a member of our military too...to make you feel better.
Ummm, I THINK you meant to quote the post I responded to.....

HOWEVER, it's a pilot who committed suicide after being wanted for questioning for killing his girlfriend.

Unfriggin' believable......With all this pilot craziness going on lately, I'm thinking it's time for some psych evaluations......
They are already done as part of the pre employment process at the major airlines ....I have a better idea how about psych evaluations for flight attendants! We could see a considerable culling in the ranks to make room for new (re: attractive ) ones!

Yes. I just saw that on the news. At least 121 security didn't fail catastrophically.

Wow! Your lack of maturity is truly astounding!

You don't seem to comprehend the gravity of the situation and of the events that transpired in St. George and Colorado Springs, do you?

One person has been brutally murdered and you are implying that ‘…a captain [because of her/his experience/skill/knowledge/education] would’ve been better equipped to figure out an escape route/plan’.

Had this person been able to get airborne, no one knows where he would crashed the plane to commit a suicide and how many more he could’ve killed.

Your sarcastic reply and failed effort to sound humorous reeks of inhumanity!

I had to read your post a few times since your command of English grammar leaves something to be desired. I THINK you meant to say " i.e." attractive ones NOT "re."
In any case, I say yeah more attractive FAs all around----but that has to cut the other way too so we have something to ogle. I don't know about you, but I'm getting a little tired and bored having to be exposed to fat, dumpy, bald, poorly dressed "professional" pilots or the few attractive ones who are either narcissists or airheads.

And now on a serious note. This is a terrible and sad set of events.

Thank you!! This is exactly what I was trying to say, and all I got was a few idiots bashing me! Glad I'm not the only one who sees this crap.
