framer/oceancrosser,
For your own sanity, you must have the strength of character to switch it off. . . .
skridlov,
I think people don't really appreciate the stress caused to them, whether accidentally, or deliberately as a destabilising/control technique, by their employment/employer, and, even if/when they do, no-one supports them. It is all such a pathetic "stiff-upper-lip"/ old-school/ face saving farce , or as they oft quoted in the RAF "well, if you can't hack it" . Of course, at the end of the day, we all have to make a buck, so the pressure is always there to continue beyond the point at which it is reasonable to stop.
Cazalet33,
for your future conscience/peace of mind, you have to go beyond the unfortunate lads parents.
I think arranging a rendezvous (for yourself) with a psychologist from the relevant CAA is the minimum you can do, to at least have "done the best you could" in avoiding a future catastrophe , not to mention helping the rest of us who could end up sharing a flight deck with this chap. It will be very interesting indeed, in the current climate, to hear what response you get if you feel able to take this step.
Sad fact of life is that some people are a ticking time bomb, but, difficult to draw the line between "odd" & "dangerous" as no doubt the former partners of Andreas Lubitz are now reflecting on.
