A BA insider claimed there were 'no reported underlying health conditions' in both the crew members who died.
Speaking of the double-death blow, a source told The Sun said colleagues were in 'shock and disbelief'.
'It has been a traumatic festive period for BA’s flying team. Everyone is deeply upset,' they said.
Paying tribute, British Airways said the company's thoughts were with the families of the fallen colleagues.
An official cause of death for both crew members has yet to be determined.
I think these baffling deaths may begin to rise exponentially.
You mean the next Scariant will cause massive heart failures worldwide? Asking before I get my 17th booster.
17? Are you some kind of anti vaxxer? Get back in line at the pharmacy.
Scary. The "elites" have bagged al the non-vaxxed pilots, we can only hope those left will keep flying safely.
We’ll have AI pilots soon. Klaus and friends have built our replacements. We have self targeting AI drones. Navy ship drones and so on. Every single thing we need as human beings has been developed. We’re witnessing the normalization release of this tech.
Plot twist: Steve Bannon said the biggest disgrace is that it’s all tax dollar DARPA developed yet given to certain corporations and individuals for profit.

I know it’s just a steward, but I’m surprised planes haven’t started to fall out of the sky at an alarming rate. I know they can remotely land a commercial plane in the event a pilot dies mid-flight but I’m talking about small planes too. I’m truly surprised there hasn’t been an increase of hobbyists crashing their planes because they have every booster known to man. Or is it the pilot community is more based than expected?
I will never step foot on a plane unless I know everyone in the cockpit is pure blood. Remote flying capability or not. No need to take that chance.
Less than 10% of airports can handle an ILS Cat III landing and not all airplanes are equipped with the system.
I remember the icepocalypse that hit Dallas a couple years ago and looked at radar.
Zero visibility.
Most of the planes diverted to Oklahoma City or Houston.
I am not a pilot, but know a few and asked them about it
They then explained the ILS III system.
Maybe, a pilot can add?
I know of a pilot for a smaller private jet company and he was not to get it... he's flown celebrities and such. Definitely an intentional move. His wife is based and he doesn't want to 'go there' but I think he doesn't want a targeted hit on his craft...
Shocking

Airline employees are a tight group and spend a lot of time together (on and off duty) but the amount of grief they feel when they see their own fall must be over the charts. How many are thinking, I'm next? How many have had symptoms that they've been noticing and denying, when they see one of their own die right in front of them.
Nah to this. Flights are awarded based on seniority and a monthly schedule pick based on that seniority. You might fly with the same crew for a month, maybe 3-4 scheduled trips made up of multiple destinations over a few days each, or an international flight there and back with overnights. But next month is a different crew and flights in most cases. So you do know people, but not that closely.
The most terrifying moment for onlooker's is to suddenly connect the dot in their mind - perhaps this is from the shot - while remembering they took one too.
Yes. I can hardly imagine how chilling that must be.
Bewildering.
Doctors are baffled.
" fallen colleagues"??? To me, that is a "revered" term for someone doing a job as a soldier of police officer......never really considered a stewardess threatening me with an "unruly passenger" fine as one of those.
They get paid very little for what they deal with.
My wife's closest friend has been at AA for 35 years and the stories she can tell, lol.
Imagine being locked in a metal tube at 35k feet in the air and handling the "animals" in a manner in which is acceptable.
They are a very tight group.
Ask a pilot what they think of a stewardess who has done the job for 30 years.
And then watch the sweat form on his brow and his hands start to shake.
He'll look around and then motion to you to lean forawrd, then whisper to you, "You never ever ever want to fuck around with any stewardess with that much seniority, I did it one time ten years back and I haven't got over it yet."
Lol
Maybe the uniforms give them that mentality.
Our clinic has its share of flight attendants. I had no idea how beat up they get. One thing I learned from them is that, if you fly a lot, it's important to use hyperbaric oxygen therapy regularly to counteract the effects of being in a negative pressure environment for extended periods of time.
Interesting! Did not know that.
I thought the plane was pressurized like a hyperbaric.
It is pressurized, but only to the extent that the passengers and crew are comfortably breathing and living. The net pressure is still negative at cruising altitude.
50 is the new 70
Vaxxed?
Baffling
