Pilot was a pretty stable dude with 28k+ flying hours. However, I think the co-pilot may have secured the cabin door, killed or incapacitated him (pilot) and put the plane in the drink. Not a nose-dive while screaming "Allah-Akbar", but at 0100 in the morning many if not most passengers would be asleep so he gradually veers off course and augers that bitch in with no one bum-rushing the door. Somewhat similar to CPT Craig Button in 1997...
