found the main body of the plane? 4 4. robin, hello, yes. there s conflicting information. i do hope i sincerely hope that really is the body of the aircraft that they ve located pen they seem to be quite positive about it. and using modern sonar and technology it s a good chance they have got it. but weshld also remember that that area was subject of heavy fighting in the second world war and you would be surprised of the number of war sites that still exist in the shallow waters aircrafts and shifts and they do find b aircraft from time to time for the last 70 years. anyway hopefully that is 8501. if it is they should be able to get tot flight data and cockpit voice recorders very quickly. it s in shallow waters and dooifrts should be able to achieve that. the kr are zr as i tried to say earlier, i m quite confused saying bodies that look as though they ve fallen some
