Well in the thoughts of Jetblast way below,I thought you might want to know how we knew the first blue ice missing engine was really from the lavatory. When we examined the recovered inlet nose dome we noted it had a curious soft body dent the size of a football. There was just no realistic explanation for that at altitude. So we got out our mag glasses and noted what looked like a pencil eraser smudges at the bottom of the dent. We smelled it, rolled it in our fingers and tasted it with our tongue. We then could conclude it wasn't a pencil eraser so we sent it off to the lab for spectros etc. Somewhere I have the lab report, but I recall that after all the percentages were in , like potash etc.that the lab guy compared it to a base sample collected off his front lawn and it was a close match.
