ANOTHER PLANE CRASH

It's now been confirmed that Lubitz's medical records note that he had received extensive psychotherapy and possessed "suicidal tendencies" before he received his pilot's license.
Source: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/03/30...68616.html

If someone's been diagnosed with severe depression and/or mental illness and you aren't constantly monitoring to ensure that he's taking his meds, don't put him behinds the controls of an airplane packed with hundreds of passengers any more than you'd hand him a loaded gun on the way to the mall. That's not discrimination, that's common sense.

So, now the question is did Lufthansa have this information before they hired him and trust Lubitz to monitor his own condition, or were they uninformed due to oversight or legal doctor confidentiality restrictions?

Wouldn't anti-psychotics have shown up in his physical examination conducted by the airline -- surely that involves a tox screen?

It is mind boggling to think that the Doctor who was giving meds and treatment to Lubitz, failed to communicate this to the airline. Did Lubitz hide his profession and seek out of town mental health treatment (so he wouldn't lose job)? There were people out there who knew something was "off" about this guy, and yet Management never heard a peep. Very strange. In any case, it does beg the question of why isn't more emphasis placed on the mental health of professionals who are responsible for the lives of others. I realize that Physicians are not trained Psychiatrists, but they should be able to see some sign of severe depression and psychotic behavior if they meet with pilots every 6 months for routine physical exam. In any case, I think this might over-ride any maximum amount of liability on part of airline. This was the result of negligence of the doctor and the airline....Apparently there was never a tox screen done at time of his physical, but again I don't know the timing here or how long the drug would stay in his body, Somewhere I read that he took some kind of leave and there was a break in his flying career. Maybe, it was then that he was seeking active treatment, i.e,, injections of anti-psychotic drugs, etc.. (2010). We could then conclude that he hadn't been taking his meds, and thus he carried out his suicide proclivities on day of crash.
To me, if some Doctor told him he was unfit for duty the day of the doomed flight, and failed to notify the airline, then he/she bears much of the responsibility also, IMO. I think next time I fly, I am going to download a short psychological questionnaire and ask both pilots to please complete and return to me ASAP.
