This Germanwings aircraft has been suspected in 2015 of being deliberately crashed by a co-pilot, killing all 144 passengers and 6 crew on board.

This article describes an aviation disaster in which flight crewmember(s) or passenger(s) deliberately crash or attempt to crash a plane as a way to kill themselves as well as passengers on board or other persons on the ground. This is sometimes described as a murder-suicide.[1] It is suspected as being a possible cause of the crashes of several commercial flights. Generally, it is difficult for crash investigators to determine the motives of the pilots, since they sometimes act deliberately to turn off recording devices or otherwise hinder future investigations.[2] As a result, pilot suicide is often only a theory about why some aircraft disasters happened, and can be difficult to prove with certainty.[3] [4]

In the case of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 which disappeared from radar in 2014, pilot suicide is only one of a number of theories explaining the disappearance.[5] [6] In the case of the crash of Germanwings Flight 9525 into a mountain, preliminary findings suggest that a co-pilot locked the other pilot out of the cockpit, and then deliberately flew the plane into the French Alps.[7] There is usually confusion about whether such suicides are acts of terrorism.[8] [9]
