Here's hoping for a positive ID and a step nearer some form of closure for the families should the debris actually be from the plane.

Below is the BBC effort on the matter:

If the length of the debris is correct at 24 meters, width would be around 15-16 meters judging from the image. Is there anything of that size on a 777? Especially after crash?

The images are also four days old, the debris could have drifted anywhere from there.

Could be pices of fuselage or wing plus satellite coverage of the area will probably be increased to cover large areas.
