Is this true about the 9525 crash? This is what I gather from the news. The co-pilot was crazy and blind.?

Yes. I like the way you summed it up. He should have been a taxi driver with those credentials.

The co-Pilot WAS pretty Messed Up... But He couldn't have been "Blind"- to what He obviously Intended to DO. :(

"The co-pilot was crazy and blind"

He was apparently depressed and/or suicidal, but that probably doesn't still make him "crazy" (at least in the legal sense of the word).

As far as blind, he may have had a detached retina (still isn't concerned).

That wouldn't make him "blind", but it might have had some effect on vision.

If like you say he was blind explain how he got a pilots common sense tells you he wouldn't .

You need to pay a bit more attention to the facts..... He was not blind ..... Just mentally disturbed.... I blame the Doctors, who deemed him unfit to fly more culpable..... They had a DUTY to report him.... No mentally disturbed individual is going to admit they are crazy.. Nice to have lots of hindsight.... as good as looking at a horse's ***

You just said you read the news, so why is YA a more tustworthy source?

he had some issues. no doubt
