Gameel Al-Batouti

Gameel Al-Batouti was a pilot for EgyptAir and a former officer for the Egyptian Air Force. On 31 October 1999, he murdered all 216 passengers and crew on board EgyptAir Flight 990 when he intentionally crashed their plane into the Atlantic Ocean about 60 miles (100 km) southeast of Nantucket Island, Massachusetts. The US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) concluded and stated that the crash was caused by a series of deliberate flight control inputs to the aircraft made by Al-Batouti, while being alone in the cockpit and in the position of relief first officer. The NTSB went on to state that the reason for his inputs were "not determined".
