Firehorse:

What I said was The photo is showing the cockpit after it had being raised. (the cockpit went into the water with the nose section of the a/c and the divers seperated the cockpit from the nose section because the whole thing is too heavy to lift up to the surface.)

An extra note: The cockpit A/P MCP (or FCU) shows the autopilot was disengaged but the FDR and the CVR (no aural warning) failed to show that. (and please note that there is only a 0.26 sec interval between CVR stoppage and the breakup of the a/c)
