David,

I think, that question is best answered by the facts derived from flight data recorders and other evidence available, correctly interpreted by the accident investigation team.

Right now we are making an assumption again, namely that the video is not manipulated and the timestamps are correct. I'd certainly concede, that this may be a reasonable assumption, but it remains an assumption nonetheless and is not established fact.

Thanks for jumping in - my respect for your statement!

Servus, Simon
