Left outboard aft flap — Mauritius

Confirmed to 9M-MRO by unique manufacturing numbers

Open in cross-ref

Îlot Bernache recovery. One of three serial-confirmed trailing-edge pieces (with Réunion flaperon and Tanzania flap).

Confirmed identifiers on a flap section from the left wing. Together with right-side confirmed parts, this argues against a story in which only a single component detached far from the rest of the airframe.
