Findings that the co-pilot believed to have deliberately crashed a Germanwings plane hid psychological problems from his employer prompted a charged debate in Germany on Monday on patients' right to privacy.
      

As he was desperately trying to enter the cockpit of the crashed Germanwings plane, captain Patrick Sondenheimer shouted,'' Open the damn door!''

The last words of the captain were revealed through the black box recording found after the accident, as reported by German newspaper Bild Sunday.

Haunting video footage of Germanwings co-pilot Andreas Lubitz enjoying a flying lesson in a glider has come to light. The video shows the pilot responsible for the Germanwings Airbus murder-suicide laughing as he takes off and lands solo. He is believed to have been in his late teens during the recording obtained by ITV news.

Investigators of the crash of Germanwings plane said on Sunday they have isolated 78 DNA strands from the remains of the 150 people that died in the worst aviation disaster in French history in the last 15 years.

New pieces of evidence emerge regarding the appalling Germanwings tragedy.

According to the ''Bild'', the 28 year old murdering pilot kept trying to get the pilot out of the aircraft cockpit, in an attempt to lock himself in and go on with his deadly scheme unencumbered.

The captain of a passenger jet that investigators believe was deliberately crashed into the French Alps, killing all 150 aboard, shouted at the co-pilot to "open the damn door" as he made desperate attempts to return to the locked cockpit, a German newspaper reported March 29.
 

The mental health of the co-pilot of crashed Germanwings passenger plane was a "serious lead" in the inquiry, but not the only one, French prosecutors said on Saturday.

Germanwings captain Patrick Sonderheimer can be heard desperately shouted "open the goddamn door", according to Bild.

The tabloid said accident investigators heard a recording which starts with the captain apologizing to passengers for a 26-minute delay in departing Barcelona, and promising to make up the time on the flight to Dusseldorf.

Even more information about the life of Andreas Lubitz is seeing the light of day.

As international networks claim, his former partner was pregnant.

Nevertheless, they had split up only a month prior to the tragedy.

The pretty blonde, as international networks describe, her was living in his apartment.

The Germanwings co-pilot Andreas Lubitz, who is suspected of intentionally crashing the plane in the French Alps, wanted to change the whole system and everyone to remember his name.

This was revealed by an ex-girlfriend of Lubitz, who also pointed to his increasing problems as the reason for them to split, the German newspaper Bild informs.
