Topic: Flight 9525

A review of the preliminary report on the Germanwings Flight 9525 crash highlights new data from the recovered flight recorder. The report indicates that 33 seconds before impact, there was an input on the right-side stick that was insufficient to disengage the autopilot. This detail raises questions about whether the co-pilot had a moment of remorse or if the autopilot system was designed to be uninterruptible during the descent.

The New York Times reported that evidence from the Germanwings Flight 9525 cockpit voice recorder showed one pilot was locked out of the cockpit before the crash. The reporting suggests the pilot outside was attempting to smash the door down while the pilot inside remained silent. The hosts question the validity of these early leaks from unnamed investigators and military officials.
