    I take anything coming from TIGHAR with a large scoop of salt.

    Nope. It's a waste of time and money to keep looking.

    It appears to be a promotional stunt for Hilary Swank's upcoming film

    Do they really think that a piece of aluminum immersed in salt water and exposed to sunlight and oxygen is going to be intact after 77 years? If that little panel was part of her airplane the rest of the wreckage would be very close by...engines, tires, etc.
