Why would someone train themselves to kill all their pax, carry out a survivable ditching and then "go down with the ship"? That hypothesis makes no sense at all.
From a previous post in this thread a major cause of hull losses in recent years has been pilot suicide - which makes no sense but presumably did at the time to the individuals concerned.
