It looks like sharks have been chewing on the trailing edge of that thing.
Not to sound too tinfoily but a wing and a suitcase would be a pretty cheap ruse, not necessarily for a terrorist but for some of these darned hoaxers. About every 10 years or so, someone goest to the expense of planting a period-correct flight boot or piece of metal along the possible flight path of Earhart, hoping to fool the world.
Remnants of a badly damaged suitcase have reportedly been found close to where plane debris, suspected of being part of missing Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370, has been recovered on Reunion Island.
Journalist Julien Delarue, who works for local paper Journal de L’île de la Réunion, reported on Twitter that what appears to be a suitcase has been found on the Indian Ocean island, less than a day after islanders discovered a two-metre long piece of debris.
The report included photographs of a man holding a badly damaged object that appeared to be a “suitcase on wheels”.
The French language news site said the man, a local gardener, had found the bag near where the debris was discovered less than a day earlier.
The photographs show the object has two rusted zippers, netting, and frayed cloth that resembles the lining seen on standard items of luggage
