PICTURE: Australian safety board missing Qantas A380 engine disk evidence

In particular the ATSB wants to retrieve the missing half of the number two engine's geared disk. Approximately one half of the disk has already been found, ATSB photos indicate.

"The recovery of that disk could be crucial to a full understanding of the nature of the engine failure, and may have implications for the prevention of future similar occurrences," the ATSB says.

"The ATSB has requested any residents of Batam Island... to forward those items to the local police for retention," it adds.
