Too late!

I can tell you from personal experience that much of the meaningful crash information would be well and truly obscured by now. I have seen one of these blades which exhibited evidence of widespread disbonding in the honeycomb section of the blade well away from the edges of the bonds after about one month's submersion and the OEM's response was that the immersion in the water caused the disbonds. Now as an expert in adhesive bond failure forensics I can tell you that disbonds due to water exposure occur from the edges of the bond and propagate inwards. They do not initiate in the middle of a bond.
I'll bet they give the same response this time.
