Indeed. The lack of consideration for others who might find themselves in a path of a pilotless aircraft is surprising.
I suppose people in that situation just aren’t thinking straight.

I though there’s many more practical ways to both end a life and to begin a new one than jumping out of a PA28. Really strange.
Wouldnt a tall building be more practical/logical? Why go through all the trouble of trying to get out of the door. Its really hard work to squeeze through a door with all the air forces against it.
The pilot’s body was found on Sunday afternoon at a place 12km south of the crash side.

( short article – only in German )
If no bodies were found at the crash site, and the plane was not fitted with remote control equipment (
) then the occupant(s) must have jumped out. The only Q is whether it was done with a parachute or not.
Jumping out without a chute (i.e. a suicide) and letting the plane crash possibly on somebody else, is just weird. But there are all kinds of weird suicides… look at Germanwings, or (prob99 IMHO) MH370.
So looks like he jumped out of the PA28.
Did anybody seriously doubt this?
The Slovak one doesn’t seem to be ending happily either. An Ukranian whose documents may have been found at the scene, took his dead brother to the hospital at Michalovce saying that he’d been in a hit and run with a car. One newspaper suggested that he might have been guiding the aircraft in to land and been hit by it… All seems a little odd – perhaps ground looped whilst trying to avoid hitting him? Possibly smuggling ciggies, though none found at the scene.
They found the pilot dead, according to the news outlet “many kilometers” away from where they estimated the aircraft’s trajectory.
So looks like he jumped out of the PA28.
Stasi prisons in Aachen? Sounds like an amerikan movie, alright…
New Theory!
The pilot woke up from some super secret Stase prison that was abandoned when the wall went down. The newly awoken pilot not knowing that there is today one big happy world without borders, while sneaking past one of the dirt airfields saw the plane and took a chance. Took off from his former East Germany and attempted to cross a non existing border. He used a parachute that he found in the warrior which he put on and jumped out over what he thought was West Germany. He came to an unfortunate end when the parachute he found was not stuffed with a parachute but rather dirty laundry. Thats the European ending Version.
The American ending version. After he jumps and finds dirty laundry coming out of the pack he lands in a lake and survives.
The End
