It’s also too big to be a shipping container that fell of a cargo ship which would be the most likely large debris I think you would find in the open ocean.
I think I read that the B777 is 209 ft long. This debris is approaching half the length of the plane.
If it turns out to be a positive ID, it only deepens the mystery. If it had gone north, we would have a good idea what it was all about - piracy, terrorism, hostages, etc. This, it makes no sense. Why fly all the way to the southern ocean? It must have just ran out of fuel. What happened?
exactly that happen to me. I was an Export Coordinator and one of the food product which was Frozen Potatoes. The container slipped into the Pacific Ocean during a nasty storm. I assume they did not secure the container and as the ship kept rocking the container kept sliding until “plop”.
