Was it a professional hit or terrorism?
The mystery that investigators are trying to unravel
on what caused the crash of Germanwings Flight 9525 have made a startling
discovery in an audio recording, according to a New York Times report: One of the plane's pilots
was locked out of the cockpit before the crash.
"You can hear he is trying to smash the door
down," a senior military official involved in the investigation told the
newspaper, describing audio from the cockpit voice recorder, one of the plane's
black boxes.
"We don't know yet the reason why one of the guys went
out," the official said, according to the Times' report. "But what is
sure is that at the very end of the flight, the other pilot is alone and does
not open the door."
What is also interesting is that one of the passengers
worked for the U.S. Pentagon. One of the Identified victims were Yvonne Selke
of Nokesville, Va., an employee for 23 years at Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. in
D.C., and her daughter, Emily Selke, a recent graduate of Drexel University in
Philadelphia. The U.S. government did not identify the third American it said
was on the plane.
Adding to the suspicion of foul play is that the second "black box," the flight data recorder, was found but
without any of its contents. The crash apparently dislodged the recorder's
memory card which is still missing
