there is no fuel dumping capability in the Airbus 300-600. If there is fuel in the bay, it probably came from a rupured tank.

The wing was in the bay. There's your fuel.

From Avsig, written by a very well-regarded AA captain:

"I just saw a video clip of the recovery of the "wing" on the local CBS affiliate. It was the vertical stabilizer unless AA has put their logo on the wing along with the US Flag."
