Just too bizarre
I would normally urge people to be slow to judge others, but the suggestion that two alert and experienced flight crew could go for more than an hour and 300 km without contacting ATC and without noticing that they had forgotten to land so defies credibility that the hypothesis that they had fallen asleep seems much more plausible.

my uniformed comment on the basis a voice recorder only keeps 30 minutes of history
yes they fell asleep, woke up realised they are stuffed, so kept flying so by the time that came back to land the 30 minute window had been exceeded and no-one would be able to work it out
