As per news report of NDTV, The piece suspected to have come from the China Eastern Airlines Corp. Ltd. jet was found about 10 kilometers (6 miles) from the main wreckage area, Chinese officials said at a briefing Thursday. If investigators confirm that the part came from the jet, it would indicate the plane suffered some kind of midair breakup, which could offer clues about what led to Monday's crash or at least shed light on the flight's final seconds. "The questions are: exactly what piece was it and when did it come off?" said Jeff Guzzetti, the former chief of accident investigations at the US Federal Aviation Administration.
