lufthansa says it screens in the hiring process, but is that truly accurate? matthew wall and juliet kayem and david soucie and so david, how difficult is it to predict
video, and there is video of everything on the street, and the pilots don t like it, because it violates the privacy in the workplace, and this may be the crash that leads people to want to do this. and matthew, it reminds you of the huge implications, but is this the leading to be nefarious, and the pilot got up to go to the restroom or illness? well, richard is correct that the fuller accounting of the cockpit recorder will tell us more. egypt 1990, the first officer at the controls where he was called home to be fired because he had been caught literally pulling his pants down in the manhattan and exposing himself to young women, and egypt 990, and that plane descended much, much faster and went from 36,000 effete, and 19,000 feet in 37 seconds, and this plane was in a relatively more gentle dive and
the door as well as stall and so on telling the pilot that the plane is in trouble. and we have done experiments enhancing the cockpit area microphone signal to eliminate any of the noise to get through to those alarms. and so you would clearly be able to hear all of, this correct? we should be with proper processing. and stand by, because i want to bring in matthew wall who is an aviation expert and you have reported on this and covered numerous accidents. yes, and they will report on who is the one who got up, and left, because there is micro microphone, and this is year ri ekchos of the halloween crash in 1999 where it is clear that the first officer was going to kill everybody on board and put the plane in a dive and various people said why not cobckpit
probably hit the mountain intact and egypt air 1990 broke up in flight it was descending so fast, and so this is a clue that it was not nefarious, and on the other hand the captains and the first officers get thorough health exams once a year and some of them twice a year for this reason that you don t want a person who is subject to incapacitation. richard? matthew, a question for you in order to discuss this point. i was where you were and the early part of the evening i was sort of more medical emergency than the e nefarious, but the more it was put to me this issue, but to create a measured descent of say 3,000, and say, you fall on the sidestick, and without it changing the heading at the same time becomes quite difficult, doesn t it? i mean, how do you effect a medical situation that creates this measured devent?
there fly ging, and i am comfortable with it, and we have to keep it that way. and matthew, the last word, quickly, because i am up against the clock. well, different idea, talking about the voice recorder it is not tape, but it is chips. and there was a crash in cali colombia where they found the chips and wired them back together, and read the data off of them and the guys on the mountainside tomorrow morning where they r they are going to be looking for the computer chips, but they may come up lucky. that is interesting to say the least. and everyone said their peace, and i appreciate it. coming up next, the breaking news. the reports that one of the pilots was locked out of the doomed plane. we will go to the reporters in the region. i have verizon. i don t. so i found us on the trail map and took the only easy way down. it wouldn t load.
