The shipwreck hunter hired by Sala's family with the help of funds donated by football stars such as Lionel Messi found the plane wreckage on Sunday. Mearns said his discovery of two seat cushions on the French coast last week revealed that the plane had broken up. So what you don't want to do is to disturb the body in a way that you lose it," he said. "Had that not happened, I don't think anybody would have searched for the plane," Mearns said.
