The only large parts of this plane that were recovered were those that broke off pre-impact.
I wonder if Klowntown is aware of this flight.

At 08:37 GMT (15:37 local time) flight MI 185 took off, climbed to 35,000 feet and assumed a Palembang heading. At 09:05:15, the cockpit voice recorder ceased recording with no abnormal data. The last readable data from the flight data recorder was at 09:11:27. Jakarta Air Traffic Control radar recording showed that MI 185 was still at 35,000 feet at 09:12:09. The next radar return, eight seconds later, indicated that MI 185 was 400 feet below 35,000 feet and a rapid descent followed. The last recorded radar data at 09:12:41 showed the aircraft at 19,500 feet. The empennage (the tail section including stabilizing and flight control surfaces) of the aircraft subsequently broke up in flight and the aircraft crashed into the Musi River delta, about 50 kilometers north-north-east of Palembang at about 09:13. The accident occurred in daylight and in good weather conditions.
The wreckage had penetrated deep into the river bottom complicating recovery efforts. The impact force was so great and the destruction was so extensive that most of the recovered fragments from the river consisted of small highly distorted parts. Portions of the rudder skin and the outboard sections of the horizontal stabilizer were recovered on land, the furthest about four kilometers from the main impact site. About 73% by weight of the wreckage was recovered.
The only large parts of this plane that were recovered were those that broke off pre-impact.
