3. By fundie nutjobs, perhaps?
The Air Force is riddled with fundies. It's not unreasonable to think that some fundie Air Force vets got jobs at a flight school in Arizona.

10. Um, no, it isn't.
My thesis is that they may have converted him. Then other fundie nutjobs might have convinced him that god wanted him to fly a plane into the ground, just as Muslim fundie nutjobs did with the copilot of Egyptair flight 990.
This dude take hysterical hatred and paranoia to a whole new depth. Fundamentalists - real Christian Fundamentalists, not the heterogeneous religious folks the MSM deem "Fundamentalists" - have been around for about a century. If this hateful paranoiac's scenario is so credible, why haven't there been hundreds or thousands of Fundamentalist-piloted suicide flights? E.G. Mission Aviation Fellowship (using the MSM "definition" of "Fundamentalist, which is what this hateful paranoiac would use)?
Judging by his ~60K posts, I'm guessing this isn't his first paroxysm of
Fundie Fear and Loathing. And DU-folk haven't driven him off their site with derision of his lunacy.
