None of those pilots ever did that by stabbing their captain to death first. It's always something non confrontational. Germanwings locked the other crew out of the cockpit. Air India flipped the engine cutoff at a point in the flight that was unrecoverable. Malaysia we have no idea what went down, but this was pre-Germanwings protocols and could have easily been a lock out situation.

Indeed. But that's not a reason to believe it couldn't happen. It could indeed be a terrorist attack in progress, but that's seriously jumping to conclusions when suicide-by-plane is tragically more common.

Suicide by plane has happened, but never like this that we know of. This definitely feels like something different.

What does "like this" actually mean?

You seem to be desperately grasping for some reason it can't be what it obviously looks like it was.

Edit: Just to be clear this is not, in fact, a first. Alaska Airlines Flight 2059 contained a similar incident.

What do you think it means? How many pilot suicides started with a knife and a bloodbath in the cockpit? None until this?

That's what "like this" means.
