Investigators are piecing together what caused an Airbus A320 operated by Lufthansa’s Germanwings low-cost airline to crash in the French alps Tuesday morning as it was flying from Barcelona to Düsseldorf. All 150 people on board were killed.
A French prosecutor said Thursday that an audio recording suggests the German co-pilot, identified as 28-year-old Andreas Lubitz, deliberately crashed the plane after locking the commander out of the cockpit.
The pilot can be heard banging on the cockpit door as he tried to get back inside, minutes before the plane smashed into the snow-covered mountains, a senior military official with knowledge of a cockpit audio recording told The New York Times.
Lubitz, from Montabaur in the Rhineland-Palatinate region of Germany, had logged 630 flight hours before co-piloting the doomed aircraft. The other pilot had 10 years of experience of flying for Lufthansa.
Officials said the plane had been last checked by technicians on Monday and weather conditions were reportedly good at the time of the crash.
