Following the shocking report of the co-pilot of the GermanWings airline that purposely crashed the plane a few days ago, airlines across the world have begun requiring two crew members to always be present in the cockpit.
Investigation reveals that 27 year old, co-pilot, Andreas Lubitz locked the main pilot out of the cock pit and drove the planes into the mountains killing all 150 people on board.
In light of this, a number of major Canadian, Norwegian, German and UK airlines have all pledged to change their safety policies.
Reports from CNN reveal that Air Canada, Westjet and charter airline Air Transat, Norwegian Air Shuttle, major German airlines including Lufthansa and Air Berlin, Easyjet, Monarch Airlines, Virgin and Thomas Cook have all confirmed they are changing their safety policies.
This new procedures will mean that two crew members must always be present on the flight deck and a member of the cabin crew must stand in when it is necessary for the pilot or first officer to leave the flight deck.
