No matter the safeguards in place - if someone (flight crew) is desperate/crazy/suicidal/determined etc --- they will find a way to overcome and end it all.
Poor folks on board - rough way to go, especially with the Pilot trying to re-enter for that long 8 minutes. And all looking out the windows as the mountains grow closer.
Will be interesting what the investigators find in the co-pilot's background and potential reasons for his actions. And if he muttered at the end... "allahu akbar". No doubt the investigators are holding back information.
But, even with the disturbing news - at least the probable cause is being determined.
Contrary to those poor relatives of MH 370 in the South Pacific lost over a year ago...little doubt here that it was the Pilot ending it there.
