I dunno man.

One time, we left like 20 minutes late, but the pilot said he would try to make up some time in the air. When we landed, we were only like 17 minutes late, so I feel like he did a pretty good job. That guy was a straight shooter.

Outside of Germanwings in 2015 what other crashes can be attributed to a pilot purposely crashing the plane?
