Press conference

A press conference will be held at 15h00 French time (1300UTC) at the headquarter of the BEA, Le Bourget.
NKM did not say (of course) what was the exact state of bodies observed.
Ushumgal, may be that some people will be able to analyze and comments about this fact.
A relative of a victim just said whether to extract the bodies ( I don't know exactly how to formulate) would be appropriate or not. It will depend of the families. Either the wrecks would be taken back up to the surface of the ocean or it is decided that it is a mass grave and let it at the bottom. Hard decision to take.
Drones REMUS have been used in this mission.

Edit: NKM said that some wrecks were almost in "one part". I believe she was speaking of the fuselage

Edit2: NKM interview :
Dailymotion - Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet - une vidéo News & Politics
Only the first minute of the interview is related to the AF447.
