Debris spotted: A handout picture released by Brazil’s Air Force shows a helicopter flying over debris (white spot) in the Atlantic Ocean, some 400 km from Fernando de Noronha islands, Brazil. Aircraft on Saturday spotted seats and part of a plane wing in the Atlantic where an Air France jet went down nearly a week ago, officials said. Two bodies and other items were recovered from the area earlier.
