The co-pilot of Germanwings Flight 9525 appears to have deliberately crashed the plane after he was left alone in the cockpit, according to a French prosecutor.
The captain was intentionally locked outside minutes before the A320 crashed into an alpine mountain ridge, French Prosecutor Brice Robin said Thursday. Co-pilot Andreas Lubitz, a 28-year-old German national, was silent throughout the plane’s descent and was alive at the point of impact, according to the prosecutor.
Mr. Robin’s conclusions are drawn from the plane’s cockpit voice recorder, recovered at the crash site in the French Alps late Tuesday and analyzed by French accident investigators on Wednesday.
The recording contains screams believed to be from passengers, once they recognized the plane was crashing.
Investigators are now exploring why Flight 9525 went into its unauthorized descent from its 38,000-foot cruising altitude with one crew member absent. The descent led to the crash about 10 minutes later.
French air accident investigators said on Wednesday they extracted information from the jet’s cockpit voice recorder. The recording contained voices and other sounds, said Rémi Jouty, director of France’s aviation accident investigation office, which is leading the probe. He added that there was no explanation yet for why the plane went down.
Germanwings, the low-fare unit of Deutsche Lufthansa AG, hasn’t disclosed the identity of the pilots....

Hadn’t read your piece before but it’s a parallel to what I had in mind.
The Soviets and East Germans had both the requiste skill sets as well as being foster parents to ME and African revolutionaries. I mean Patrice Lumumba University says it all.
Thanks for the link, good read.
It’s still suicide. No matter the motive. And mass murder.

Wonder what “significant discovery” inside his apartment would be “sent for tests”?

Although the page has been taken down, Google still has it in the cache, for the moment:
Not many comments there, although there were 66 “likes”. One comment said, “Que celui qui a crée cette page aille en taule pour apologie du terrorisme ça le calmera!!!” which translates to: “He who has created this page to go to jail for advocating terrorism” (French-speaking freepers may be able to give a better translation).
