Worrying developments:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-32062278
French authorities now confirm it was a deliberate act by the Co Pilot..
http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/mar/26/airlines-change-cockpit-rules-after-co-pilot-blamed-for-germanwings-crash
Quite shocking news of this awful event unfolding and we will probably never find out why , and terrible to know of the screams and fear of the innocent passengers and crew at the final moments
A lot of airlines today have stated that they are to adopt the two-man cockpit rule.
I am flying with Evelop Airlines later in the year (although originally a Thomas Cook flight). I cannot find any information with regards to their status on the situation. Does anybody else have any information?

It will have Thomas Cook pilots and crew.
Why will it have TC pilots and crew? They are a Spanish carrier that is wet leased to uk tour operators.
A few years ago we flew to Turkey on a Turkish plane that TC had leased.
The crew were all Thomas cook staff.

Some more info on evelop airlines on here , maybe KM HT mod can clear up Thomas cook crew and pilots ?

TC usually damp lease from Smart Lynx and Avion Express. Airlines own flight deck, but TC cabin crew and service.
