- SOME SAY: Eagle-eyed moviegoers noticed the similarity between the recent Germanwings crash last week and one part of the Argentinian dark comedy film "Wild Tales" where there was a character named Pasternak who plots revenge against the people who wronged him locking himself inside the cockpit and crashing the plane to his parents' house. Could it be that one of the Germanwings Flight 9525's pilots were motivated by that film?
- ALSO...German media said that one of the co-pilots of the crashed Germanwings Flight 9525 plane may have problems with vision. Andreas Lubitz is suspected of crashing the plane after he left the cockpit, killing 150 people onboard. Some reports say that the pilot had treatment for retinal detachment and he could have lost his flying license if this problem has found within his medical checkups that occurred last year.
