420 m2???

edit

"The wreckage was spread over an area in excess of 500 square yards (420 m2)" Well, on this surface the Constellation could not even park! I think that a review of the sources and crossing some would be more than wise": NECESSARY! GianMarco Tavazzani (talk) 19:39, 24 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Yep. The French (BEA) Report says (s.4.1, p.322) the debris field was 100 metres in length, 300 metres wide (with a height range of 50 metres). So, 30 000 m2. (I'd amend the article, but I can't face the referencing.) 2A04:B2C2:1800:DF00:2575:1ED3:B0EB:CC02 (talk) 07:51, 29 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
