The wingspan includes both left and right wings and the cabin width, but the area being looked at is only the right wing so your proportion is off by over 50%.
Huh? I was responding to Fred Nerks' post 213 which showed the photos from Josh Lang. Those photos showed the entire downed aircraft. I was spot-on when I said that the wingspan of that craft is 52' and that persons floating in the ocean would probably be only about 2' x 2', so about 1/26th of the width of the wingspan. Relative to the size of the plane, the survivors would be quite small and not easily seen in the photo taken from Lang's plane.
How was I only looking at the right wing??? I have no idea what you are looking at or talking about.
