American Airlines are said to have reviwed procedures in relation to this.

They have a second pilot in a crew of three. Pilot takes a comfort break. Tother pilot takes the pilots seat. There by reducing the risk of a suicidal loan individual left unattended on the flight deck.

....voice recording has evidence of the co pilot breathing normally. There is audible banging on the flight deck door, which gets progressively louder, to the point they are clearly trying to break the door down. Screams can be heard, as you can imagine...

Horrific.

Yeah, watched the conference on the news earlier .. although the investigation is still underway the prosecutors are basically saying the co-pilot waited for the pilot to leave the flight deck, locked the door, manually set the desired descent profile, sat back and waited calmly for the end :-\

What's a suicidal loan individual? Someone who threatens to top himself if you don't borrow money from him?  ;D

It doesn't sound like it's the case, but those doors can jam, and following 9/11 don't be too surprised to find that they might only open outwards :-\

There's probably a glib reply to that...

But you're not the first person to pick up on that point :-X
