Satellite photos of possible crash site of MH370

The MH370 has the following dimensions

Wing span 60.9 metres; Overall length 63.7 metres; Tail Height 18.5 metres

Just thinking out loud... but a piece that's 24m long, seems a bit small. To me it makes me think of a boat or something similar. I guess the news agencies are happy with this news today, at least they don't have to keep on repeating the fluff from the last few days.

60.9 meter wingspan, minus 5.8 meter cabin width, divided by two = 27.5 meters length of each wing. I'd say that computes.

I would never want to speculate, but I speculate that CNN's ratings will be back to their abysmal levels in a few weeks. :)

for something to remain floating after 12 days?

maybe a wing with an empty fuel tank.
