Your missing car is unlikely to have been blown into lots of small pieces ..Slightly off topic, so first, sincere condolences to everyone touched by this event.
In relation to finding the aircraft, I still find it unbelievable.
I am the director of a hire firm, we have 3,000 prestige cars and designed tracking technology to ensure we don’t lose one. We never have.
We recently did some work with the NCA and Interpol as they wanted to know whether our technology (which is covert and almost impossible to locate by thieves) would work in a freight container.
So, when we next had a car stolen, rather than retrieve it immediately which is our standard process, we left it. It ended up in Uganda where we found millions of pounds worth of other British cars.

Anyway, I still find it absolutely unbelievable that planes these days are not found. We can track a car, in a solid steel container, across the world with decent and unique technology (which didn’t cost multi millions to develop and utilised the same technology NASA use to find and locate spacecraft!) yet Airbus and Boeing (in the case of MH350) and smaller airlines are unable to find something which is submerged in the ocean. It’s just unbelievable in this day and age.
