I would imagine this would be standard procedure to keep the cabin door locked sort security purposes. I'm a bit surprised the captain would not have a key. Can the door only be opened from inside?
There is a double lock from the inside. One allows entry from outside with a code, when the other is locked, no code or entry.

Prosecutor says he does not believe disaster was terrorism or suicide WTH? For sure it was some kind of suicide.

Lose his job...?...for being a sodomite? Shirley, you jest.
Dude, you know that ain’t true given the EuroWeenie ethos. If anything, he would have been summarily advanced according to his “cultural bravery”.

He has to say that at this time until he has absolute proof, other wise he may endanger his case if it proves to be a conspiratorial mass murder. And ‘accomplices’ could then claim he did it all by himself without any input on their part........................

The AFP news agency reports that the co-pilot, Andreas Lubitz, was registered as a member of a private flying club in Germany, LSC Westerwald, and was a runner who took part in local races, according to public records. This is a screengrab of what is believed to be his Facebook profile.

That one looks legit. It has a picture of a Beach Bonanza. Only a pilot would know that is the Lufthansa academy training aircraft.

‘ceptin’ that kreutz refers to the cross of crucifiction, not a physical act of “crossing” some geological feature; noun v. verb, in this case.

He can be heard breathing, but what is the evidence he was awake and aware of what he was doing? Can he be heard moving around, touching things? Plus does the door lock itself?

My guess- Homo who recently found out he has AIDS and can’t pass his upcoming flight physical, which means his flying career is over. Flying is everything to him. He decides to go full tilt Raging Drama Queen and take out everyone with him.

Article in the Daily Mail..off Drudge link..says that when the captain began the briefing about the landing in Dusseldorff, the co-pilots responses became "curt"..shortly after the capt left the flight deck..
Interesting...but hard to tell what it means..could be French translators missing context..or much more..that was the trigger moment..

Possibly but why would he not simply rent a Piper and drive that into the ground? AIDS is, in the end, a personal “weapon” that does not require a multitude of lives lost to make a statement.
My money is still on the possibility that the other crew member in the cockpit was found to be “involved” with the other-member’s significant other (wife, concubine, boytoy, etc. - and I’m gonna stick with the heterosexual angle for now).
That would explain locking the crew-member out.

Exactly.
I’m no doctor but I am SURE there are many “events” that do not disrupt the breathing pattern that much.
Nor, for that matter, do we know if it is absolutely clear. Usually the investigators have to piddle with the sound to pick out things like that.
This is mostly suspicious, but there IS still a possibility this is a horrible accident. I cannot believe they are mouthing off about this so soon. I can’t believe they have this much information so soon. It’s never this easy.
