One person was killed after a small plane crashed near an elementary school in Spring Hill, Florida on Friday.
The Germanwings co-pilot suspected of deliberately crashing an A320 Airbus into the French Alps rehearsed the fatal maneuver on the morning of the March 24th disaster. BEA, the French accident investigation agency, has released a preliminary report into the accident. Information taken from the flight data recorder on the outbound flight from Barcelona to Dusseldorf shows co-pilot Andreas Lubitz set the autopilot to take the Airbus down to as low as 100 feet while the captain was out of the cockpit.
German prosecutors say they have found documents that show Germanwings co-pilot Andrea Lubitz, who allegedly crashed his aircraft into the French Alps on Tuesday, was receiving medical treatment. Nathan Frandino reports.
