...thanks for sharing outhouse.

I'm not sure if everybody else is concerned about the expletive used, or the general idea that the mayday call has been released by the press. I wouldn't care either if my last call made it to the public - definitely not if something can be learned from it.
I suggest the call indicates a severe situation the pilots could not handle, but not a disintegration of some sort, because the resulting g-forces most likely would lead to not being able to even voice the last word.

RIP.
