A British victim of the French alps air disaster was on the doomed aircraft after switching flights at the last moment.
Paul Bramley, 28, died when co-pilot Andreas Lubitz locked the Germanwings flight's captain out of the cockpit before flying the plane into a mountainside, killing all 150 people on board.
His grieving girlfriend Anneli Tiirik says she doesn't blame Lubitz.
"I cannot hate or blame someone for being sick", the 23-year-old music student told Britain's Sunday People.
On the day of the tragedy she was waiting for her boyfriend at Manchester airport, having flown in herself from Estonia.
"He was originally meant to land in Manchester on the Monday night, but he changed his flight at the last moment for Tuesday. That was all the information his mum and I had, because he had switched off his mobile phone.
"I had a bad feeling because he would never have left me alone waiting like that. I had been there for a couple of hours when one of his relatives came to pick me up. She stepped out of the car with tissues in her hand. My heart sank and I knew the worst had happened."
