I think earlier today they updated and said 2-3 Americans were on board after saying none originally

I would imagine that the plane was on autopilot, so if the pilot that was still in the cockpit had a medical condition, it wouldn't have descended. From the Airbus pilots I've asked, they turn that bugger on a few seconds after wheels up and disengage it a few minutes before wheels down. They basically are system managers and watch for traffic.

Thing about a plane crash is that it's 99.9% death rate.

8:06 a.m.: The name of the co-pilot was Andreas Lubitz, Marseille prosecutor Brice Robin said.
• 7:55 a.m.: The co-pilot of the doomed Germanwings flight "accelerated the descent" of the plane when he was alone in the cockpit, Robin said Thursday. That can only be done deliberately, he said. • 7:55 a.m: The co-pilot was alive until impact, Robin said, citing the sound of steady breathing in the cockpit. • 7:55 a.m: There was a "deliberate attempt to destroy the aircraft," Robin said.
