@ Leightman 957, the link to the video filmed from the ship is http://youtu.be/qlk-eJoRLnc

Note at t=0m50s the white-on-red letter C of “Now Everyone Can Fly”, which on the RH side should be above a window above the leading edge at the RH wing root.

The aircraft concerned indeed had the large-size fuselage-long lettering version of that text, which is evident on the image http://si.wsj.net/public/resources/i...0111220801.jpg of the retrieved short part of the fuselage sidewall ahead of the aft RH service door. On that image the large-size letter N of “Now [etc.]” is visible when it is being lifted from the ship onto the blue open trailer for transport from dockside to investigation site.

@ Machinbird: with the aid of the video taken from the ship, your image appears to be the wing center section top skin inside, as seen from the bottom up. The view of curve of the slat extenders suggests likewise to me.
