If this is indeed the part, it shows a notable absence of barnacle colonisation compared to the flaperon.

A major coincidence though, with the blogger finding the piece.

Victor Iannello's twitter feed linked in susier's post has a recent CNN phone interview with Blaine Alan Gibson where Mr. Gibson is not overly convinced that his discovery is a part of the missing MH370 aircraft.

I find it more than a little suspicious that Gibson charters a boat in Africa to look for MH370 debris and the boat owner finds this apparent aircraft piece himself and calls Gibson to come see. Is this perhaps a piece from a recent African crash that was placed on the sandbar to be 'discovered' by the visitor?
