      DUSSELDORF, GERMANY - FEBRUARY 27: A float featuring British Premier Theresa May drives in the annual Rose Monday parade on February 27, 2017 in Dusseldorf, Germany. Political satire is a traditional cornerstone of the annual parades and the ascension of Trump to the U.S. presidency, the rise of the populist far-right across Europe and the upcoming national elections in Germany provided rich fodder for float designers this year.

      Crash investigators say Germanwings plane accelerated in descent

      Data from second black box confirm crash was deliberate

      French gendarmes and investigators, seen in this picture released by the French Interior Ministry, make their way through debris from wreckage on the mountainside at the crash site of an Airbus A320, near Seyne-les-Alpes...ATTENTION EDITORS - VISUAL COVERAGE OF SCENES OF INJURY OR DEATH French gendarmes and investigators, seen in this picture released by the French Interior Ministry March 26, 2015, make their way through debris from wreckage on the mountainside at the crash site of an Airbus A320, near Seyne-les-Alpes. A young German co-pilot locked himself in the cockpit of Germanwings flight 9525 and flew it into a mountain, killing all 150 people on board including himself, prosecutors said on Thursday. After listening to "black box" voice recordings, French prosecutors left no doubt that they believe 28-year-old Andreas Lubitz was in control of the Airbus A320 and set it on its fatal descent. They offered no explanation for his motive. REUTERS/French Interior Ministry/DICOM/F.Pellier /Handout TPX IMAGES OF THE DAY) FOR EDITORIAL USE ONLY.

      Lubitz searched net for suicide and cockpit security information

      History on tablet device from co-pilot’s home lends weight to finding that crash was deliberate

      Andreas Lubitz runs the Airportrace half marathon in Hamburg in this September 13, 2009 file photo. The co-pilot who appears to have deliberately crashed Germanwings plane carrying 149 passengers into the French Alps received psychiatric treatment for a "serious depressive episode" six years ago, German tabloid Bild reported on March 27, 2015. Prosecutors in France, after listening to the cockpit voice recorders, offered no motive for why Andreas Lubitz, 27, would take the controls of the Airbus A320, lock the captain out of the cockpit and deliberately set it veering down from cruising altitude at 3,000 feet per minute.
