quote:I would hope they're constantly looking at improvements/ scenarios. Like someone said earlier, I think its protocol to always have two people in the cockpit. If a pilot needs to go to bathroom, then a flight attendant sits in until he returns. (sounds plausible, not sure if that's accurate or not though)
There may be no perfect system, but I expect they will look to tweak the current one.

Man now my GF wants out of our trip to Europe because she is "scared."

If one of the pilots decides to crash the plane during the take off or landing phase when the plane is at a very low altitude, there could be 10 people in the cockpit and there would be little they could do to prevent it. By the time anyone realized the plane was entering an unusual attitude it would be too late to recover given the close proximity to the ground.
