Fuelling distrust in MSM and official information released is the fact that some of the reports came from 'official' sources such as German commissioners, French investigators etc, they should all get their facts straight before releasing any information and should be singing from the same song sheet, with the truth preferably.
According to his account, the plane takes off at 10am from Barcelona. Ten minutes later, the captain tells his co-pilot, Andreas Lubitz: “I didn’t have time to go to the lavatory before take-off.”
Lubitz replies: “Go ahead whenever you like.” At 10.27am the plane reaches its cruising altitude of 38,000 feet.
The captain asks Lubitz to check if the plane has shifted into descent mode. Lubitz does so and repeats to the captain: “You can go. You can go now.” At 10.28am, sounds can be heard from the captain’s chair. “The captain removes his safety belt,” it writes.
“The captain tells Lubitz: ‘You are in control now.’ “I hope so,” Lubitz responds in a “tone that tries to remain light”.
Alone in the cockpit, Lubitz then locks the door with the “lock” switch, and can be heard reprogramming the autopilot to accelerate the speed of descent to go from 38,000 feet to 100 feet in a few minutes.
At 10.33am, the descent commences and the plane loses 3,000 feet per minute. Air traffic control notices and unsuccessfully tries to contact the plane by radio several times. Lubitz does not respond.
“One can hear the captain trying to open the cabin door and knocking on the door, saying : ‘It’s me!’,” writes Paris Match.
“He can be seen via a camera linked to the cockpit. Lubitz sees him on the screen but does not react. The captain takes an oxygen tank or fire extinguisher with the aim of breaking the door down. No response. The captain shouts: “For the love of God, open this door!” At 10.34am, a first visual and sound alarm erupts, saying: “Sing rate, pull up.” From through the cockpit door, one can hear the first passengers panicking in the aisles.
At 10.35am, the captain asks crew to find a crowbar hidden in the back of the plane. Harder blows can be hear against the door, followed by metallic sounds.
“The captain is trying to twist the door with the crowbar.” At 10.37am, a second alarm warns: “Terrain, pull up”. Still no reaction from Lubitz.
The captain screams: “Open the damn door!” At 10.38am, “despite all the noise all around, one can clearly hear Lubitz’s breathing because he has put an oxygen mask on. He is breathing normally. The plane is at 13,000 feet,” writes Paris Match.
At 10.40am, one can hear a “violent sound coming from outside. At the same time, there are screams inside. The Airbus has just hit the mountain with its right wing”.
From then on, all that can be heard are “the alarms and the passengers’ screams”.
At 10.41, the plane hits the mountain at 5,000 feet flying at 500mph.

Thanks for adding this news.
Sounds like the end was even more terrifying than I had imagined.

Did you or anyone else notice something crazy in there cuz i did...
the part where the co-pilot is breathing through a oxygen mask??? doesn't fit in their story of a suicidal lunatic

And how did they determine he was breathing via an oxygen mask? CVR? Video? How did they know the masks were deployed? Were the passengers and cabin crew taking oxygen too?

We will know when the mobile camera video is leaked.
Something harrowing and gut wrenching no doubt.
It supposedly already did leak and i've seen it but it's a hoax magnet and it's april 1 so i'll pass
but here's the link if you haven't already seen it

I'm not really sure but we could assume that the sound of breathing through a mask is extremly recognizable and differs from regular breathing...so when they say we've recovered the sound recordings from one of the black boxes it would make sense that the particular sound could be heard.
That's what 'they' were going for anyway..i don't really believe them.

Them would be higher echelons of lufthansa and airbus trying to hide a big technical problem with the airplane.
That's my theory and i'm sticking to it.

btw. the fact they confirmed the copilot had a mask on, is one more little puzzle piece leaning toward my theory and not theirs thank you very much.

And what actual evidence has the investigation released? Everything is coming out second hand, and through leaks. We haven't seen any hard evidence released by the investigators yet. It's all either through the Prosecutor, or through alleged leaks.

Please enlighten me as to how him wearing the mask even remotely backs your "theory." Is he somehow less dead now? How EXACTLY would this "hide" any alleged defect? .

I have no idea why you wrote that.
Let me explain the logic behind the oxygen mask.
Airplane defect -> not enough oxygen -> mask on.
Suicide -> yolo -> no mask.
