### Location

Prads-Haute-Bléone, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France

## Death

At 10:01 AM on March 24, 2015, Germanwings Flight 9525 left the Barcelona-El Prat Airport enroute to the Düsseldorf Airport in Düsseldorf, Germany. The aircraft was going along its flight path and had confirmed instructions with air traffic control in France as late as 10:30 AM. At around 10:31 AM, one of the pilots, 27-year-old Andreas Lubitz, locked his pilot out of the cockpit and took sole control of the aircraft. Lubitz had not told Germanwings that he had been treated for suicidal tendencies in the past and was declared unfit to work by his physician. The plane began to descend from its cruising altitude of 38,000 feet and air traffic control regarded it as an aircraft in distress as they had lost all radio contact. Military aircraft were deployed to intercept the jet, but the efforts were in vain. At 10:40 AM, Flight 9525 crashed into the Tête de l'Êslop mountain range near Prads-Haute-Bléone, France. All 150 people on board were killed in the collision. By 2017, Germanwings paid the families of the victims €75,000 as well as an additional €10,000 to each close relative of the victims.
