His profile hasn't been deleted - it has been "memorialised", as Facebook allows family to request once someone has died.

Daily Mirror: Germanwings co-pilot Andreas L's Facebook page memorialised by social network site

Edit - his page, as claimed in that Mirror article, no longer appears with "Remembering" in front of it - so perhaps it is one of (apparently many) hoax accounts set up...
