I say the right decision was to remove the aluminum containers from the galley before lifting it on board, the containers probably contained sea water and the added weight when netting the galley in would have deeply gouged the composite structure as it doesn’t have lifting points on it and is already severely weekend by impact. Plenty of photos of the position of the containers positions were most likely taken and there is no excuse for breaking a big peace like this by lifting it waterlogged.


The photographs are exalent, I have worked with composite building and repair on ultra light sailboats, other marine craft, airplanes and high speed “bullet” trains, and with the trains especially I have been involved in recovery and analysis of aluminum and composite debris after a mass transit accidents, very interesting photographs.
