BREAKING: Germanwings co-pilot deliberately crashed Flight 4U9525 after locking his captain out of cockpit

The co-pilot of the doomed Germanwings Airbus A320 locked his captain out of the cockpit before deliberately crashing into a mountain to 'destroy the plane', it was sensationally revealed today.
French prosecutor Brice Robin gave further chilling details of the final ten minutes in the cockpit before the Airbus A320 plunged into the French Alps killing 150 people.
Revealing data extracted from the black box voice recorder, he said the co-pilot - named as 28-year-old German Andreas Günter Lubitz - locked his captain out after the senior officer left the cockpit.

At that point, Lubitz uses the flight monitoring system to put the plane into a descent - something that can only be done manually.
Mr Robin said: 'The intention was to destroy the plane. Death was instant. The plane hit the mountain at 700km per hour.

'I don't think that the passengers realised what was happening until the last moments because on the recording you only hear the screams in the final seconds'.
The captain - named by local media as German father-of-two Patrick S - can then be heard asking for access to which he gets no response.
He knocks and asks him to open and then starts banging furiously when he receives no reply.
All the time, you can hear the co-pilot breathing, Mr Brice revealed.
