avherald

From an anonymous comment on avherald:

CVR data has been read. It seems structural failure (windshield? not determined yet)..It was quick... sound of cracks,but crew initiated emergency descent by autopilot and then they weren't heard anymore. Autopilot was on during whole descent, but disconnected automatically shortly before impact when GPWS alerts appeared.
an anonymous comment -all you need to know

another bit said to be from the same avherald (The Aviation Herald avherald(.com) is the website) posted several the pages back indicated that some data has been recovered from the FDR -Hello?

The at the present story (not the comments thereto) from said same avherald.com website states:
When confronted by journalists with rumours originating in Finnish media quoting Finland's CAA about a burst windshield, the BEA said they have no such information.
