Recovered tail plus ...
plumbrob, henra, smott999 - tail recovery
First impression is that we see part of the aft top fuselage panels down to the underside of the left and right exit doors. With 5 windows on each side. And 6 frames clearly identifiable, and upto 5 stringers under the windows. I have not seen floorbeams yet.
All lying upside down on the weather deck of the Crest Onyx of course.
The vertical tail looks suprisingly good. But a small part of the lower part of the rudder is torn away. Speculation - that might have happened when the tail with THS and APU were torn away.
On one of the recent pictures is a part that looks like the front end of the fuselage to wing fairing. Which looked pretty good. No information if it was recovered floating or underwater. First impression is floated.
