because of a locked cockpit door

Door wasn’t locked and had nothing to do with the crash. In fact a flight attendant managed to get into the cockpit and turn the plane from a populated part of Athens, likely saving lives shortly before it fully crashed

The plane simply never pressurized and literally as the co-pilot realized what was happening hypoxia took them and the captain, all because a switch could turn pressurization into a manual override and there was no warning before takeoff that it was that way

Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here’s the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
