I agree with parts from crashed aircraft being sold to collecters or to be used as patterns for rebiulds etc but I strongly feel that the sale of any item/part that was part of the aircraft that human remains were found in should not be allowed to be put up for sale.
I look forward to reading others comments on this subject
