Families sue Germanwings training school

The families of the victims of the Germanwings crash, in which 150 people died last year, are suing a US flight school for screening failures.


Andreas Lubitz, the co-pilot, flew the plane into a mountain in the French Alps in March 2015 after locking the captain out of the cockpit.


The case argues that the training school failed to investigate his medical history, as our correspondent in Berlin, Natalie Powell reports.
