If yes, you should have realised visibility under such circumstances is not even measured in inches, but in centimetres, and not many of those....
True, but there was a good deal of time when the wing was full of witnessess, the airframe floating with a nose up attitude, the top of an engine should be as visible as the top of the wing surface (this prior to any churning produced by rescue craft). And I can't see the difficulty locating an engine while it is apparently attached. It's only a matter of swimming along the wing leading edge until you bump your head. Strange that it takes over 24 hours to accomplish this?
Not saying conspiracy.....just wondering why something so pathetically simple to ascertain requires such a great amount of time to accomplish.
