Someone may have set a bomb off in the forward lavatory.

EgyptAir Flight Data Shows Smoke Detected in Bathroom Before Crash - NBC News

Quote:
The report includes the plane-to-ground messages sent in the final minutes of the flight:

00:26Z 2600 SMOKE LAVATORY SMOKE

00:27Z 2600 AVIONICS SMOKE

00:28Z 561100 R FIXED WINDOW SENSOR

00:29Z 2200 AUTO FLT FCU 2 FAULT

00:29Z 2700 F/CTL SEC 3 FAULT

The information would suggest the possibility of smoke or a fire in close proximity to the electronics and equipment bay of the Airbus below the floor of the cockpit.

An "FCU" refers to a unit in cockpit the pilot uses to input instructions into the flight computer. "SEC3" refers to the computer that controls the spoilers and elevator computers of the plane.

The fault messages indicate there could have been problems with the plane's controls and computers, critical to controlling the aircraft.

"We don't know what it is, but it's a clear indication that something was terribly wrong on flight 804," John Cox, a former Airbus A320 pilot, told NBC News.
Probably not some idiot having a smoke in the head ... Possibly an intentional fire set with fast smoky combustible material.
