In defence of Andreas Lubitz

My name is Field McConnell and I am the retired Delta pilot who first reported the BUAP to world aviation authorities.  I am convinced that Mr Andreas Lubitz was a victim and not a perpetrator for many reasons.  I was the guest on a radio show yesterday that was heard by over 100,000 worldwide:

If you could share this link with Mr. Lubitz’s family I think they would be encouraged that some of us in aviation can see that the case of GW9525 did not happen as been reported and it is also very unusual to claim a cause so early without an investigation.

I expect to be near London UK next weekend 10-13 April but could also travel to Germany at some point if Lufthansa, Germanwings, or the Lubitz family want a powerful ally.

When Malaysia 370 went missing the nation of Malaysia asked me to travel to Kuala Lumpur and explain to them the BUAP and ATI.  It is my opinion that the Captain may have left the cockpit to discuss with the FAs the fact that the aircraft was not responding to pilot control inputs.  The BUAP could have ‘denied entry’ to the cockpit door and Mr Lubitz, alone in the flight deck, would be helpless to overcome the BUAP.  He also may well have been unconscious due to the ATI.  Below is the YouTube produced for Malaysia that caused them to have me travel to KL and explain it:

In addition to Malaysia and MH370 I explained to Sukhoi how their Superjet demonstration aircraft was remotely flown into Mt Salak in May of 2012 and GRU/KGB demonstrated confidence in the information I reported to them.

I have CCed this to Lufthansa CEO and Safety Office.
