- Was "the majority of the craft" recovered anywhere? Which witness mentioned
- that? All we ever hear about are the scattered little bits, the largest
- being one of these balsa wood sticks about three feet long or so, and the
- odd larger piece of sheet material. A crashworthy chunk protecting the
- occupants, found intact would be necessary to support that idea.
