By all means speculate, but the result always has a beginning.
Excellent post.
Getting to the beginning and where and why this happend is the key. The clues, I believe are in the ACARS messages. One thing that makes them so confusing is that they are not in sequential order.
This is an intense mystery that must be solved. And it seems it will have to be solved w/o the CVR/FDR.........
