Debris from the crash is scattered over a wide area near Seyne-les-Alpes
The co-pilot of the Germanwings plane that crashed into the French Alps on Tuesday appeared to want to "destroy the plane", French officials said.
Marseille prosecutor Brice Robin, citing information from the "black box" voice recorder, said the co-pilot was alone in the cockpit.
He intentionally started a descent while the pilot was locked out.
Mr Robin said there was "absolute silence in the cockpit" as the pilot fought to re-enter it.
Air traffic controllers made repeated attempts to contact the aircraft, but to no avail, he said.
Passengers could be heard screaming just before the crash, he added.
The co-pilot, now named as Andreas Lubitz, 28, was alive until the final impact, the prosecutor said.
The Airbus 320 from Barcelona to Duesseldorf hit a mountain, killing all 144 passengers and six crew, after an eight-minute descent.
"We hear the pilot ask the co-pilot to take control of the plane and we hear at the same time the sound of a seat moving backwards and the sound of a door closing," Mr Robin told reporters.
He said the pilot had probably gone to the toilet.
"At that moment, the co-pilot is controlling the plane by himself. While he is alone, the co-pilot presses the buttons of the flight monitoring system to put into action the descent of the aeroplane.
"This action on the altitude controls can only be deliberate."
He added: "The most plausible interpretation is that the co-pilot through a voluntary act had refused to open the cabin door to let the captain in. He pushed the button to trigger the aircraft to lose altitude. He operated this button for a reason we don't know yet, but it appears that the reason was to destroy this plane."
He said the co-pilot was "not known by us" to have any links to extremism or terrorism.
But he said German authorities were expected to give further information on his background and private life later.
Passengers were not aware of the impending crash "until very last moment" when screams could be heard, Mr Robin said, adding that they died instantly.
Meanwhile, relatives and friends of the victims are due to visit the area of the crash.
Lufthansa, which owns Germanwings, arranged two special flights for families and friends on Thursday - one from Barcelona and one from Duesseldorf - to Marseille, and both groups will travel on by road. Separately, some relatives who did not want to fly are travelling by bus from Barcelona.
The second "black box" - that records flight data - has still not been found.

WOW
What a scumbag.
RIP to all the victims.
You know...whenever we fly, we're at the mercy of the pilot. God forbid he's suicidal

Damn man. I was hoping that this was just some malfunction of the plane but the way they were saying that the model was so reliable when it first happened you kinda figured it was foul play. I guess the question now is, was it just a single individual person or was this a terrorist group operation?
Why does everything have to be about race with you
This coli shyt is really getting to you huh.
Mabye it's helping you think. I hop.
Suicide is a big issue in the Caucasian community that needs to be addressed. Why aren't y'all happy? You have the whole world? Life sucks kill everybody?
Let's be better

its a shame if it's the case.
I guess they'll be looking at the whole idea of safety vs preparing for terrorism when it comes to the door locking mechanism.
Also they'll be looking at the presence of multiple crew in the cabin. Types of breaks allowed on stops to freshen up etc. Better psychological evaluation etc
When it comes to evaluating airlines pilots they put them through alot of evaluations already. It's not an easy job to get. Personal investment is huge in every individual
I don't think something like this will occur often. Atleast not to me cause I Atleast can fly the damn things

Hope there's puddin' in the clink...
Crazy thing is it was said the pilot and co-pilot were having typical small talk before the pilot left the cockpit for the bathroom. It was then my man locked the door and went straight
