This is about distance travelled after event .Variously reported as 15km/25miles.
Tracking data unreliable but included 80 knots G.Spd
at that speed vertically perhaps several minutes to reach ground.
horizontal speed decaying from 400knots .
Lockerbie 747 covered 40 plus miles
We really want to see the distance last smooth tracking ground position from final ground position, and search that far back
