Artifact Condition: |
Wing is in poor condition and deteriorating badly. Part of it is partially buried. Another nearby debris appears to be from the tail section. It is consistent with size to all other components as to being from the same plane. A third slab-like piece also in the vicinity may be from a wing or may not even be related to these pieces at all. There appears to be fire damage in places. |

Additional Information: |
These aircraft pieces are 140m away from an engine and 65m from a plane cockpit with a wing portion that this wing may have come from. (See AIR-4 & AIR-7). |
