Only now dutch investigators and Ukraine Emergency Services work is beginning to gather that material. They are making a lot of progress here. Just behind me is a twisted piece of the fuselage that has fallen among the chicken farms in the area. It is one of the pieces they are getting ready to load on to trucks and transport and driving to a nearby train station and eventually flown to the netherlands. Four months ago, the plane hit the earth here. It could be weeks before experts sift through the wreckage. This is all obviously an eternity in terms of an aircraft investigation. It is important this is happening now because this region has a good dusting of snow last night. It will get a lot colder and snow fall heavier in the weeks ahead. That will put off an operation like this for many more months. It is significant it is happening now. Something of a race against time. They are getting in there just before winter really sets in. We have been speaking to the dutch investigators that have been overseeing this. They say every day they have been here moving pieces around, they are still finding human remains. That is also tremendously significant as well. This is the final chapter, i think, for this field and remote site in the corner of ukraine.
