It looks like 5% of it burned to unrecoverable pieces. Did they find most of the recovered pieces in the woods? Wasn't an engine found in the woods?I imagine most of the plane hit the ground....well....maybe all of it hit the ground....nose first.....and blew the fuck up. So I'm sure some of it burned....but the metal parts were all there.....mutilated all to hell.
Gravity can be a bitch sometimes.

the heavier parts were found burried in the holeIt looks like 5% of it burned to unrecoverable pieces. Did they find most of the recovered pieces in the woods?

No it was found in hole, just as most of the plane was found in the hole.
Oh you mean most of the plane was found beneath the crater?No it was found in hole, just as most of the plane was found in the hole.
the area was a reclaimed strip mine, most of it was landfill and as such was soft groundOh you mean most of the plane was found beneath the crater?No it was found in hole, just as most of the plane was found in the hole.
you are forgetting the stuff they had to DIG outOh you mean most of the plane was found beneath the crater?No it was found in hole, just as most of the plane was found in the hole.
what do you mean "beneath"??
it was in the crater.
Is that what Trojan meant?Oh you mean most of the plane was found beneath the crater?No it was found in hole, just as most of the plane was found in the hole.

it was in the crater.
OK thanks. I just wanted to get clarification so I can tell the people I'm arguing with.now the landfill wasn't as soft as the everglades, but I'm saying that in a similar manor, the plane embedded into the ground
At United Airlines. You'll have to call them for photos.where is this 95% of recovered plane kept and where are the photo's?
You can get DNA from hair and nails. Those are unlikely to get cross-contaminated. 100% of DNA was identified out of 8% of total remains found btw.how was the DNA not cross contaminated in such a horrific crash ...link please

Contamination
Because extremely small samples of DNA can be used as evidence, greater
attention to contamination issues is necessary when identifying, collecting,
and preserving DNA evidence. DNA evidence can be contaminated when
DNA from another source gets mixed with DNA relevant to the case. This
can happen when someone sneezes or coughs over the evidence or touches
his/her mouth, nose, or other part of the face and then touches the area that
may contain the DNA to be tested. Because a new DNA technology called
"PCR" replicates or copies DNA in the evidence sample, the introduction
of contaminants or other unintended DNA to an evidence sample can be
problematic. With such minute samples of DNA being copied, extra care
must be taken to prevent contamination. If a sample of DNA is submitted
for testing, the PCR process will copy whatever DNA is present in the
sample; it cannot distinguish between a suspect's DNA and DNA from
another source.
Transportation and storage
When transporting and storing evidence that may contain DNA, it is
important to keep the evidence dry and at room temperature. Once the
evidence has been secured in paper bags or envelopes, it should be sealed,
labeled, and transported in a way that ensures proper identification of
where it was found and proper chain of custody. Never place evidence that
may contain DNA in plastic bags because plastic bags will retain
damaging moisture. Direct sunlight and warmer conditions also may be
harmful to DNA, so avoid keeping evidence in places that may get hot,
such as a room or police car without air conditioning. For long-term
storage issues, contact your local laboratory.
