Thanks spook,

I had no idea it fired off so fast. So it seem safe to me now, to assume the airframe was intact until the last transmission at 0214z. And that transmission was only a warning of a crew ECAM advisory? Is that right? "Excessive Cabin Rate of Change" or something like that on the ECAM screen?

WN090601 2131 00206 ADVISORY

Am I wrong?
