What the Germanwings Co-Pilot Hid from His Bosses that Might Have Kept Him from Flying

Aimee Herd : Mar 27, 2015  CBN News

Medical notes were found in a waste bin in Germanwings Flight 9525 co-pilot Andreas Lubitz's apartment in Dusseldorf, Germany, said Dusseldorf prosecutor Christoph Kumpa. -CNN report.

EDITOR'S NOTE: While there has been some speculation on the internet that the co-pilot may have been a recent convert to Islam, this has NOT been confirmed. Therefore it remains an unsubstantiated rumor at this point. If that changes, BCN will make that known to our readers. -Aimee Herd, BCN.

He also hid the fact that he'd been excused by a doctor from work the day he crashed the passenger plane in the French Alps, killing all 150 passengers on board.

Torn-up sick notes "support the current preliminary assessment that the deceased hid his illness from his employer and colleagues," prosecutor's spokesman Ralf Herrenbrueck said in a statement.

Still, Herrenbrueck said no suicide note was found and that there was no sign of any political or religious motivation for Lubitz's actions.

The new information surfaced as German officials work to figure out the 28-year-old's motives.

So far, they've learned Lubitz began his flight training in 2008, part of it in the United States at a flight center near Phoenix.

Meanwhile, the tragedy is causing several international airlines to make changes to match U.S. policy, which requires two in the cockpit at all times.

Airlines are also questioning the idea of an impenetrable cockpit door.
