Hamburg - during the approach of gale it sat to tax - Maxi J. (24), the beautiful CO female pilot of the Lufthansa flight LH 044. A gust of wind had gotten the flier in such a way that the left bearing area scratched over the runway. In last second flight captain of olive A had. (39) the machine waved off, so 137 humans saved (PICTURE reported). The beautiful female pilot, who sat to tax of the gale flier - she guards a sad secret.

Maxi originates from good house, drives gladly sport, was active as Cheerleaderin, friends was always important to it. In the year 2003 it made its Abitur, visited thereafter the national foreign language school in Hamburg. It existed the bang-hard selective procedure of Lufthansa a little later, completed starting from 2005 the training as the female pilot. THERE JULIA KNOWING LEARNED IT. It was one of their companions in crew "340. nff" (new generation pilot training course). They learned together, became friends. But the fate should always separate it...

On 1 February 2006 Julia started in the Lufthansa training centre in Phoenix (the USA) to a practice flight. It was their third solo flight. But its "Beechcraft Bonanza" fell over the desert - a cause inexplicably! The death of Julia shocked Maxi. Together with their comrades it wrote in a Kondolenzbuch: "Julia, you will always remain in our hearts! You will be on each flight with us!"

More miscellaneous items Despite the shock Maxi created its pilot license in February 2007. Well one year later came it then to the difficult approach of gale on the airport Hamburg. The first landing had Maxi alone denied, when it came to the nearly Crash, intervened their colleague. Lufthansa speaker Michael Lamberty: for "a new situation developed ways of the strong gust of wind, it within fractions of a second a role change gave. It counts the team achievement." Lufthansa places itself before the courageous female pilot. Nevertheless the Federal Agency for flight accident investigation examines the flight writers of the LH 044, above all the discussions in the cockpit. Maxi still is in the service. And that is also the most important for it. Because on the question, which prefers airplane her, Maxi said once: "no matter, main thing fly..."

She started the 0 to hero program in AZ in Feb '06, graduated in Feb '07, incident occured Mar '08.

She didn't have that much flight time. Especially for an A320...

A link to her friend's accident, it's rather interesting, very unfortunate...
