GERMANWINGS FLIGHT 9525

The new rule requires a flight attendant to be present whenever the pilot or co-pilot leaves the cockpit.

Authorities working to identify the body parts of crash victims denied a newspaper's claims that the co-pilot's remains had been found.

Humility was a theme of the Roman Catholic leader's message to tens of thousands in St. Peter's Square in Vatican City.

Transcripts published Sunday detail the final moments of the flight, as the captain battered the cockpit door, demanding to be let in.

Andreas Lubitz had been deemed unfit to fly, but apparently hid his diagnoses from his employer.

The co-pilot of the doomed Germanwings Flight 9525 reportedly hid the difficulty with his vision from Lufthansa, but sought treatment for it.

“We have not found a single body intact,” French forensic investigator Col. Patrick Touron says.

A member of his glider club claims the co-pilot had taken part in glider training sessions, less than 40 miles from the site of the crash.

Andreas Lubitz's former girlfriend told a German newspaper that he told her he wanted to do something that would "change the whole system."

The co-pilot accused of deliberately crashing Flight 9525 reportedly struggled with depression. And in the past 15 years, pilot suicide was the likely cause of several major aviation disasters.

It's unclear whether the compensation package offered by the parent company of Germanwings will be supplemented in the future.

Airlines will have to introduce more stringent checks in the wake of Germanwings, experts say.

Fully automated aircraft already exist but as many as a third of them crash, an industry consultant says.

“We should not rush to conclusions based upon limited data,” said Ilja Shulz, President of the German Airline Pilots Association.

A French pilots' union is filing a lawsuit because information about the plane's last moments were released to the media before they were made known to prosecutors.

Police officials searched both houses used by co-pilot Andreas Lubitz, who is suspected of crashing Flight 9525 in the Alps.

A spokesman for Germany’s Federal Aviation Office said Friday that Andreas Lubitz, co-pilot of Germanwings Flight 9525, had a medical condition that was noted in his pilot’s medical certificate.

French prosecutors have alleged that Andreas Lubitz intentionally crashed the plane in the French Alps.

Officers wouldn't specify the exact nature of the discovery, but did confirm that it wasn't a suicide note.

Airline stocks took a hit Thursday in the midst of reports the Airbus A320's co-pilot Andreas Lubitz deliberately crashed the plane.

The conclusion of prosecutors that a Germanwings pilot, who reportedly took a six-month break from training in 2009 due to depression, deliberately crashed Flight 9525 raises concerns about whether pilots are properly screened for psychological factors.
