You made it look like a piece of the wing came off, but that bit only weighed in at 7 grams and is so small it would fit in the backpocket of my pants. I would even be likely to forget to remove it before washing said pants if I would have stuck it in. It is really that small...
I wonder how they even noticed.

Hans.
