Question Egyptair, Should it be revisisted ?, is locking the door the answer?.

In light of the recent tragedy in the US it appears to me that there are some remarkable coincidences with the Egyptair crash. Namely the geographic location of both the incidents and the fact that the crews / hijackers were of Arab extraction.

The Egyptair 767 crashed into the sea off the coast of New York, The credible inquiry agencies inform us that it was caused by a member of the flight crew deliberatley putting the aircraft into a dive from which it did not recover.

Should we now ask the question "was this a pilot commiting suicide" or was it a failed attempt (for whatever reason) at what eventually happened on the 11th of September ?. Was this pilot a terrorist or was he or his family possibly under threat to carry out this act ?. Are there other long term Airline pilots from this area of the world who are being blackmailed into this kind of act, or will there be if we are able to make cockpit acces more difficult for passengers ?.

It is not my intention to be racist or slur the abilities or integrity of pilots from the Middle East. The coincidence does seem remarkable to me.
