“I’m kind of curious as to how the voice recorder was accessed so soon after being found. This stuff usually takes weeks before being released.”

It was imperative for the future of Lufthansa and Airbus that they publicize the cause. It apparently wasn’t mechanical.

Yes, I’m sure they wanted to make that clear! They were pretty quick on this one, but it may also have been because it was more obviously not mechanical and also because they actually could find the device. Most of the other mysterious crashes or disappearances have been at sea, where it’s much harder to find these things.

Another brilliant question fellow Freeper asked on another thread: what happened with the jet fuel?
