BAC44 - NON-FERROUS

Broome Aircraft Wrecks

NON-FERROUS artefact recovered from Broome Aircraft Wrecks

Wing fusilage - unidentified section of plane, possibly from wing. Singular rectangular plate with raised edges along each long side. A large number of screws (23) of varying sizes remain in place without a clear pattern. At on end the plate slopes upward at around a 20 degree angle, but it is unclear whether this is by design or a result of warping. At the other end of the plate there is a ellipse shaped hole and heavy erosion.
