Jackscrew, APU, FDR, CVR. etc. very tight zone, and an unmarked piece that looks like the THS right in there, a bit longer than an engine in length, (it should be almost thrice as long if intact), and one cannot disregard what looks like a substantial amount of smaller debris in the area of the identified contents of the tail. As large as the piece appears, it looks like it deserves some ID, as the cockpit parts are likewise bunched, and labelled ?? The main spar(s) of the THS would be almost as stout as the main spar of the wings, so I'm not sure the THS would completely disappear. Like the wings, the strongest parts (to include the box) would remain.
