I've been having this thought all day. Look, based on evidence that has been released so far, it seems like intentional copilot suicide/murder is the
most likely of scenarios, but the probability of other scenarios isn't 0%. What they've released re: the cockpit recorders certainly stops short of iron-clad proof that the guy deliberately waited until the pilot was out of the cockpit, locked him out, then crashed the plan. As W0X has mentioned ITT, there'd be
much faster ways to end it all than a controlled descent over...what was it: 5-10 minutes?
I'm not just being a contrarian for the sake of it -- certainly deliberate suicide/murder is the leader the clubhouse of theories right now...just saying that what has been released as the 'evidence' doesn't really add up to the certainty with which officials are describing what happened.
