Its been 11 days and neither Malaysian Airlines or the government is any closer to finding flight 370. Forget identifying the cause, Ive seen so much speculation they could crash the stock market. The police have confiscated a flight simulator from the pilots home hoping to find some possible evidence linking him to the incident. At the same time analyse CDRs from mobile phones and land lines and scrub hard drives for emails and saved data. Others could be involved, find them. If the pilot and or the copilot are suspects then they would have gone through considerable planning to pull this off and surely speaking to someone. But could it be suicide. There are a few instances, such as the Egypt air flight that was deliberately ditched killing everyone on board. Pilots go through the same everyday stress like all of us. What mechanism is in place to detect suicidal tendencies. Does the airline conduct periodic psychological examinations that could detect and prevent such risks. Could either the pilot or copilot become radicalized and if so how would it be detected by the authorities. We continue to wait for answers.
