You are certain you do not remember the slick seen very early on from the cockpit (I'm saying C-130)? It was dismissed along with some little debris (not described) South and East of the "Estimated Impact". At this point it should be found very early in the first thread.
edit, There are many references to an oil slick, and no "V" shape is put forth.2June,09....per appendix
a "pollution spot.....etc. I submit that if samples were not taken, it would imply very shoddy practice.
