Here's a theoretical question to stoke the brains fires a bit. What if the guy flying the plane was fulfilling a suicide bid, as has been speculated on, which cannot be confimred or denied at the present time. If this were the case (that it was an over-elaborate yet successful suicide attemt), would this not be deemd a so-called act of "terrorism"? It would seem some people experienced some sort of "terror" during or after the incident. Or is it a case of "foreign"-looking people and their acts having an unwanted monopoly on the overly mis-used terminology?

Accidents of this nature are just waiting to happen as we continue to overcrowd the skies, especially over the major cities, like London, Tokyo, LA etc. There are so many close-encounters that happen on a daily basis already.
