PARIS --- As officials struggled Wednesday to explain why a jet with 150 people on board crashed in relatively clear skies, an investigator said evidence from a cockpit voice recorder indicated one pilot left the cockpit before the plane’s descent and was unable to get back in.
A senior military official involved in the investigation described “very smooth, very cool” conversation between the pilots during the early part of the flight from Barcelona to Düsseldorf. Then the audio indicated that one of the pilots left the cockpit and could not re-enter.
“The guy outside is knocking lightly on the door and there is no answer,” the investigator said. “And then he hits the door stronger and no answer. There is never an answer.”
He said, “You can hear he is trying to smash the door down.”
While the audio seemed to give some insight into the circumstances leading up to the Germanwings crash, it also left many questions unanswered.

"We don’t know yet the reason why one of the guys went out,” said the official, who requested anonymity because the investigation is continuing. "But what is sure is that at the very end of the flight, the other pilot is alone and does not open the door."

how does anyone know he went to urinate?
maybe....just maybe...and I am only using my imagination here...something else occurred..
OK...perhaps he went to the john to rendezvous with a stewerdess for a quickie and either the other pilot or both of them had earlier decided to place a spycam in the bathroom..
so...the one in the cockpit is watching the action and begins fapping and has a heart attack and dies..
or maybe only the pilot in the cockpit knew about the camera and the female was his sweetie...and he became so despondent he decides to end it all and keeps the cockpit door locked and then let the plane crash..
