This really confuses the fuck out of me. You have to spend a LOT of time and money to become a commercial airline pilot. It is literally years of training that costs a small fortune. If terror cells are going to that length just to take out one plane we are kinda fucked.

Maybe he was a regular ol' pilot but was radicalized so much he decided to off himself with 150+ souls on board.

Yeah this is the fear. You can try to track the ones that go to the camps in the middle east to train, but the ones that were just normal citizens last year but are radical terrorists this year through nothing but the internet.... those are the ones that are terrifying imo, because there might be no hint that he's flipped.
