Flight 4u 9525

Leading carriers Emirates and Etihad Airways said today that their cockpits will have two crew members in at all times under new procedures introduced in response to the Germanwings disaster.

Investigators picking through the wreckage of a passenger jet that crashed on a remote Alpine mountain said they had found DNA from more than half of the victims, as more details emerged concerning the doomed flight's last minutes.

The captain of the Germanwings flight, which officials say was deliberately crashed into the French Alps, shouted at the co-pilot to "open the damn door" as he made desperate attempts to return to the locked cockpit, according to a German newspaper today.

The Germanwings co-pilot who crashed his Airbus in the French Alps, killing all 150 aboard, told his ex-girlfriend that "one day everyone will know my name", according to German newspaper Bild.

Despite considering Germanwings flight 4U 9525 as an option, the Swedish team ended up flying groups home on three separate flights, rejecting the Germanwings option because of the long wait for a connection in Duesseldorf. The said Germanwings flight had crashed into the French Alps killing all 150 on board.

After an Airbus operated by Lufthansa's Germanwings airline crashed in the French Alps on Tuesday, killing all 150 people on board, the Dusseldorf Airport in Germany has seen long queues, with passengers lining up to rebook their flights.
