I am curious, did changes take place due to this event ? Like real-time telemetry for airliners where their location is always available and saved on systems not on the plane.
I remember during the search the commentators said that was not done because Airlines did not want spend for that.
Under the assumption that it was a suicide, there have been changes that resulted from the similar Germanwings incident. Most airlines adopted a policy of requiring at least 2 people in the cockpit at all times.
Edited to add: There are also discussions underway on how to better handle pilots suffering from depression, since pilots are currently incentivized to never disclose mental health problems for fear of losing their livelihoods. Mentour Pilot talks about this too at the end of his Germanwings video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lotcRYD42e0
Shortly after this there was a news article about a capacity or request for proposal (RFP) to allow remote takeover of aircraft controls locking out the pilot.
I tried to find it again but it fell off the internet.
