The only confirmed evidence (that there was no answer to the commander's knocks) points to a possibility that the co-pilot was dying of a heart attack and may have accidentally hit the altitude lever.
Have we become such a skeptic society that only the sensational appeals to us as highly probable?

If we had heard of family history of premature death from heart attack
I'm sure it would be considered . There are random cases of MI heard of at
his age but with him , it doesn't add up . He kept physically fit from all
reports . It all points to his mental state .
