Hi,

I doubt about result since is based solely on marine current drift.
The flaperon rather would sail therefore the wind component is more important than marine current. I suggest to rework it using wind data
Before making any calculation whatsoever .. should first know the exact date when this debris (flaperon) touched the Reunion Island
And this date is not known with certainty
So any backtracking is futile
