Muss ein Pilot als letzter ein brennendes Flugzeug verlassen?
Diese “Regel” gibt es ja auch bei Schiffen: der Kapitän verlässt als letzter das sinkende Schiff. Ich habe die Sinnhaftigkeit dieser ethischen Regel aber schon immer angezweifelt. Es muss nicht die Schuld des Piloten/Kapitäns sein, dass das Flugzeug abstürzt/Schiff sinkt. Ich finde es unethisch, ihn dazu zu verpflichten, für sich selber ein höheres Risiko einzugehen, wenn das Flugzeug abgestürzt/Schiff gesunken ist, ohne dass er daran eine Schuld trägt. Was meint ihr?

No, there’s no rule, not in the cruise.
You can also reverse the question and ask: Who must arrive as the first, in the case of a heart attack, the doctor or the cleaning woman? Of course the doctor. And in the case of the pilot it is up to him to do everything to keep the plane from crashing and thus save as many passengers as possible.
It is intended for the mistakes of other people (aircraft engineers, engineers, terrorists and Security service etc.) sacrifice? It doesn’t sound fair to me.
The pilot is now responsible for the passengers he is carrying from A to B. He sits at the wheel and can at best cause an emergency landing. No one else has this competence.
If you don’t want this responsibility, you have to choose another profession. If a fire breaks out during the flight, the pilot must ensure damage limitation. In retrospect, it is of course possible to conduct root research and to account for those responsible for the fire. But at the moment of the accident it is on the pilot to avoid the last crash of the machine.
Well, he shouldn’t jump out of the plane with a parachute if it gets tight – at least not as long as there is still hope. He doesn’t have the sole responsibility for the passengers either. They also have aircraft mechanics, engineers, security personnel, the airline, the other pilots and the people in the tower. I am simply disturbing that a person pays for the mistakes of other people with his life you want – he also has a family to take care of and a life that is no less valuable than that of the passengers. I’m not talking about the cases where the pilot is due to the crash. It can be argued that he should also bear the consequences of his mistake.
No, he doesn’t. Neither the pilot nor the captain. But most of them do it. It’s kind of part of their honor and they know that all the others are on board.
A first aider in a company also leaves the building as the latter, as he has to tell the fire brigade in which rooms there are still people.
If the pilot or captain does it out of pieces, it’s the same.
But he doesn’t have to, and that would be ridiculous. They only do their job and their own life is more important than the job.
Well, there is no real duty to do this, I think that is more of a kind of code of honor. But without obligation, at least ethically, which weighs relatively hard, it is probably not. I mean to remember that the captain of the cruise ship, that a few years ago walked down in front of the Italian coast and then partially sunk, didn’t leave as the last one, that I think he was accused quite hairy until the end.
Finally, he is of course the highest-ranking person and responsible on board and would therefore have to take care of the organization and the processes and stand on site and make sure that everything is running correctly. I simply transfer this to my profession – I am a doctor and I work in the clinic – if it burns here, I am certainly with one of the last ones that leave the department. Okay, in my case, of course, it’s also about sick people who may not be so mobile, but now not in every department are just death sick people and completely self-employed people on the go.
