Germanwings

Families of the Germanwings plane crash are filing a class action suit against Lufthansa. The initiative was taken by lawyer Erring Fouler who believes that there is a legal case against the German airline's management that showed reckless negligence in the case of pilot Andreas Lubitz.

Lufthansa said March 31 it will cancel celebrations marking the German airline's 60th anniversary in the wake of last week's deadly crash of an Airbus jet from its low-cost subsidiary Germanwings.
      

Germanwings co-pilot Andreas Lubitz, who reportedly crashed an Airbus en route from Barcelona to Dusseldorf into a French Alps mountainside, had received treatment for suicidal tendencies prior to obtaining his commercial pilot's license.

Dusseldorf prosecutor Ralf Herrenbruck said the co-pilot had been in "psycho-therapeutic treatment with a noted suicide risk over a long period."

Findings that the co-pilot believed to have deliberately crashed a Germanwings plane hid psychological problems from his employer prompted a charged debate in Germany on Monday on patients' right to privacy.
      

More and more disturbing information are coming to light about the tragic Germanwings plane crash at the French Alps which caused the death of 150 people.

As he was desperately trying to enter the cockpit of the crashed Germanwings plane, captain Patrick Sondenheimer shouted,'' Open the damn door!''

The last words of the captain were revealed through the black box recording found after the accident, as reported by German newspaper Bild Sunday.

Haunting video footage of Germanwings co-pilot Andreas Lubitz enjoying a flying lesson in a glider has come to light. The video shows the pilot responsible for the Germanwings Airbus murder-suicide laughing as he takes off and lands solo. He is believed to have been in his late teens during the recording obtained by ITV news.

Investigators of the crash of Germanwings plane said on Sunday they have isolated 78 DNA strands from the remains of the 150 people that died in the worst aviation disaster in French history in the last 15 years.

New pieces of evidence emerge regarding the appalling Germanwings tragedy.

According to the ''Bild'', the 28 year old murdering pilot kept trying to get the pilot out of the aircraft cockpit, in an attempt to lock himself in and go on with his deadly scheme unencumbered.

The captain of a passenger jet that investigators believe was deliberately crashed into the French Alps, killing all 150 aboard, shouted at the co-pilot to "open the damn door" as he made desperate attempts to return to the locked cockpit, a German newspaper reported March 29.
