Co-pilot Hid Illness Amid Fatal Germanwings Crash
The co-pilot Andreas Lubitz appeared healthy to acquaintances yet a torn sick note and documents from his homes indicate an existing illness he hid from his employer. Prosecutors say he locked the captain out of the cockpit before the Airbus A320 crashed in the French Alps killing 150.
