French TV station claims pilot reported smoke in front part of plane and decided to reduce altitude to be able to depressurize plane and clear smoke.

No sources apart from the YV channel given.

Apparently Egyptian authorities have not passed this information on to the French who arrived to help. The Egyptians said the pilot told the ground he had smoke and was going to descend and depressurize the plane to clear it.

The Egyptians have a vested interest in this not being a Jihadi suicide. My guess is they will keep the black boxes secret if they don’t back whatever story they generated. Nobody will be able to independently verify the Egyptian story.

Supposedly the pilot was talking with Egyptian air traffic control for several minutes before the crash about smoke in the cockpit and the forward area of the main cabin. This contradicts Egypt’s claim that the pilot had not declared an emergency. It also contradicts terrorism claims. Not sure how credible it is.

Something like “The cabin is filling up with smoke so I’m going to fix it by letting all the air out.”
