The passengers were mostly Greek.
It is said the pilot was not in the cabin.
Where would the pilot go during a crisis?
My first thought when I heard it, was remembering back to the reports we saw here on TM about someone trying to drill through the lavatory door of a plane to possibly put a disabling chemical into the cockpit.
LOL at the traffic reporter not doubling over with laughter at her report.
So ok, if it was depressurization...how does a plane become depressurized?
If the pilot wasn't in the cockpit and the co-pilot was blue and unconscious, why did the fighter pilots see people trying to enter the cockpit? why weren't they disabled?
Too many questions...
Too many plane crashes.
I'd check the mechanics too.
And what was put in the cargo hold.

Could one of the people entering the cockpit, be the pilot?
He could have left to warm up? But it flew in circles for 30 minutes to an hour. Some people can handle more cold or heat, than others.
Something breaks, in a home air conditioner, it will be too cold, the thermostat, maybe.
Everyone of the crashes (almost) come back to faulty equipment and poor mechanics.
Of course a handfull of sharp sand or even salt or sugar in the gears will mess them up in due time.
There were in depth reports on it in the main thread on the
crash. link in #1258 and 1270 of TM.
You are right, too many questions.
You pose some great questions and as usual, you are on top of things with your recollection of the incident in the lavatory. All reports state that it is highly unusual for a passenger airliner of this size to have a depressurization incident like this. My TM instincts tell me that this could have been sabotage. Maybe it was intended that only the pilot and co-pilot be incapacitated and not the entire plane. I would like to know the name of the passenger who tried to gain control of the plane. And what ever happened to the Greek General's early statement of a possible hijacking. And what about the warning to Greece and the Israeli's warning just last week about cruise ships in the Mediteranean? Too many unanswered questions. Hate to always sound suspicious but this one is very strange.
