Flight International reports today that emergency services delayed efforts to access the flightdeck because of the LOCKED FLIGHTDECK DOOR. They attended badly injured passengers until the firecrews were able to access the flightdeck via a hole in the roof.

So far it is not known if the flightdeck crew survived the impact, but they were all already dead by the time they were accessed.

Has this ridiculous door policy claimed it's first victims?
I don't believe it.

I'd wait for the official report before commenting on survivability aspects and I sure wouldn't direct a post at the bereaved
