ALERT Editor's note: The New York Times reports the co-pilot of Germanwings flight 9525, Andreas Lubitz, was born on Dec. 18, 1987, which would make him 27, according to local authorities. Earlier reports by German news media said he was 28. We have updated an earlier update noting his age. An investigation into Lubitz is underway after French officials said he deliberately crashed the plane. – Stephanie
