errr..... no, I'm sorry, you're wrong on ALL points.

light aircraft (including light passenger carrying aircraft) operate at up to 13000ft without oxygen or pressurisation (limited to 30 minutes by law between 10000 and 13000 feet). There is NO way that this was a pressurisation problem.
Sounds like controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) from everything. Misjudging the slope or narrowness of a valley and not being able to climb out of it. Most likely when the pilots are unfamiliar with the territory (such as Russians in Indonesia)

Winds, downdrafts affecting climb performance, possibly extreme turbulence.. those might all have been factors (mountains in areas with rapidly changing weather can be somewhat troublesome), but cabin pressurisation will probably not even have been ACTIVE due to the altitude they were operating at.

Yup, light aircraft fly at up to 11000ft with no pressurisation or extra oxygen. This is done on a commercial basis. Anyone having breathing or heart problems below this height is very sick indeed (and should be in a hospital)

The comment "Errr... just because he didn't download the pictures, how does this make it okay? He's still accessing child porn! " is absolutely true and correct.
HOWEVER the current laws in most of the western world make it too dangerous to report any questionable (or clearly illegal) content to the police as you then risk being charged yourself. This means that when you click on a thumbnail and find out that what pops up is NOT what you wanted (I hope) then your actions are: close tab, clear history, never speak of this again.

That doesn't help, because the illegal content will just stay accessible. We want this kind of crap closed down, and if we want to close it down then reporting the crime has to be safe.

This is, IMO, a rare common sense ruling that seems to take into account the societal value of the ruling (no matter whether the defendant was guilty or not)

Hey, don't forget the next one:

- Nutritional deficiencies are no more common amongst vegans than it is amongst meat-eaters.

Well.... vegans HAVE TO eat their B12 supplements or death ensues (takes a few years for adults, quicker for children) and need to balance their diets with other supplements because the bio-availability of a few others isn't really all that high in vegan diets.
Sure, this can mostly be taken care of with a careful diet, and one or two daily vitamin pills, but if vitamin pills are required to supplement the vegan diet, but not the omnivore diet then it becomes very easy to argue that the vegan diet ISN'T the most healthy, and through some very light research it becomes easy to show that nutritional deficiencies are indeed more common amongst vegetarians/vegans than among omnivores of similar means.

"appropriately planned vegetarian diets"

That's really the issue, isn't it?

I don't have to spend any real time planning my diet. A vegan does.
If the vegan doesn't, then he/she risks serious physical and mental harm.

This alone should tell us that a hard vegan diet may not be the most sensible idea. A pure meat eating diet isn't brilliant either. How about a balanced omni diet? Well, turns out that then the ONLY thing you have to think about is eating appropriate amounts when you're hungry. All nutrients are covered, all energy requirements are covered. We're not talking about large doses of meat either. You could almost fit the daily dose of meat into a shotglass... voilá, all your nutritional needs are now met.

I used to be an airline pilot (after having been an Ops agent for years) and I support this message...

The instruments are sensitive to radiowaves in specific frequencies because they are DESIGNED TO PICK UP very weak signals in various frequencies. Add to that a few hundred yards of cabling and you get a recipe for accidentally receiving other signals. High powered signals from far away, or low powered signals from close by.

I also think that headphones (that are not connected to the plane's PA system) during T-O and landing are a bad idea.

Many of the survivable accidents that ended with unnecessary deaths happened very quickly (runway overruns on T-O or landing, or fire on the ground) and could have had more survivors if people had responded quicker or more correctly (hearing ALL the crew communications to the passengers would then be nice).
I at least take out my headphones or earplugs in those critical phases of flight, and sleep the rest of the way.

Sure, a mobile i7, but an i7 nevertheless.
