Thats assuming that the plane, whatever it really os, maintained its structural integrity on its way down. If rhe wings buckled when hitting the water, or bent on the way down it *could* look like this. That said, I not hopeful that it is actually her plane.Swept wings. Not her plane.
Besides, there are possible finds of her plane at least several times a year.
