Europe1, a French website, has an interview one of his former colleagues
"He was one of the best," the report quotes a retired Lufthansa pilot identified only as Dieter.
"He was someone very reliable, he was one of the best pilots we had," he said. "I am 100 per cent sure they did the best they could. That's what I think because I knew him very well, he was one of the best, he had a lot of experience, he had more than 6,000 flight hours behind him. "

Rykte på Twitter: piloternas namn var Patrick Sonderheimer och Andreas Lubitz
Skulle vara denne Lubitz: http://aviation-business-gazette.com...nd-Pfalz-.html
Verkar vara bekräftat av åklagare att en pilot var utelåst från cockpit:
Citat:
A German state prosecutor confirmed the reports, Reuters reported, but he did not know which pilot was locked out.

Germanwings Flight 9525 (4U9525/GWI18G) was a scheduled international passenger flight from Barcelona–El Prat Airport in Spain to Düsseldorf Airport in Germany, operated by Germanwings, a low-cost airline owned by Lufthansa. On 24 March 2015, the aircraft, an Airbus A320-200, crashed 100 kilometres (62 mi) northwest of Nice, in the French Alps, after a constant descent that began one minute after the last routine contact with air traffic control and shortly after the aircraft had reached its assigned cruise altitude. All 144 passengers and six crew members were killed.
