D-AIPX ¦ ZRH 01.08.2014

            Airbus A.320-211 (c/n 147)
Germanwings
Zürich-Kloten (ZRH/LSZH)
01 August 2014

Delivered to Lufthansa as D-AIPX in 1991, this A.320 was transferred to subsidiary Germanwings in early 2014, and was captured during happier days on finals to runway 14 on a scheduled service from Hamburg.

D-AIPX's stint with Germanwings lasted for only 14 months, as it operated the ill-fated Barcelona to Düsseldorf flight that crashed in the French Alps on 24 March 2015. There were no survivors among the 150 occupants.

Given the fact that the aircraft was infamous within the Germanwings fleet for regularly suffering from technical glitches, and given the fact that the French BEA needed only 48 hours to determine the cause of the crash, citing a suicidal attack by the first officer who deliberately steered the aircraft into the mountains, it comes as no surprise that there are still a fair number of conspiracy theories out there, pointing to a number of issues only sketchily covered by the official investigation and report, or not at all. 

Hopefully time will eventually tell what really happend back in 2015.
