I read it that the pilots tried to steer through the various CB's ie not go around it but through, attempting to avoid the worst
The captain Mark Dubois is alleged to being heard shouting instructions to the crew.
I too read that the captain is supposed to have entered the cockpit, however, the fact that his body was found during the first days would suggest to me he was perhaps near the cockpit but not yet "in"
The source is obviously not revealed, and although one would have hoped that the captain was in the cockpit during the CB period, there are no indications in this press document that the cockpit was understaffed.
