PJM SAID ....o if the tail was found 30klms from the last known location, and the other debris found is 100 klms from the last known location, indications are that the aircraft broke up at high altitude.

Not so fast ... the tail section may have floated for several hours- and in a stormy sea and high currents could well have moved the 15 miles or so in a few hours/days before sinking.

Ditto for other debris
