Yep - we’ll find out soon enough, probably in a couple of days. Like I said, if it turns out to be wreckage from MH370, well, at least the families can have some closure.

If they can get an idea when it washed ashore, tide and current tables will give them a remarkably accurate location of where it went into the water.

A serial number isn’t critical. How many 777 flaperons are unaccounted for?

It is just speculation at this point. It’ll take a few days before they can ID one way or another whether this came off MH370 or off another plane. There was a couple of other plane crashes not far from Reunion Island, so it’s entirely possible it could be wreckage from those.

It would be quite a relief for the families to know for sure; it’s gotta be hell - of course, you’d presume your loved one(s) are dead - but with no wreckage or bodies found, well......that’s when it gets difficult, I’m sure.

Oh boy I bet he did. The regime is some kind of lucky if this is true. Gets that pesky Planed Parenthood story right of the front page. Heck them just finding this part gets them guaranteed 48 hours or more on the CNN.

I hope this is true so the Families of the Victims of the Crash can finally get some closure.

Needle in a haystack indeed - but if it is indeed a part of MH370, at least we now have a somewhat better notion of where in the haystack we should be looking.

They looked further south on the assumption the pilot was trying to get back to a safe landing place.

“CNN brought out Richard Quest again, he sounded giddy as a school girl being asked out for the prom by the most popular boy in school.”

For Richard Quest you would have to change your sentence to:

“he sounded giddy as a school boy being asked out for the prom by the most popular boy in school.”

Quest is gay, lol.

First, months or a year ago, we thought it veered off to near Australia, so, it really is wait and see.
