That would be a first. However, it may yet be found as 100% intact.



If the autopilot did the best it could with all passengers and crew dead, it landed in the ocean and is in roughly one piece due to the minimal weight having allowed for a minimal stall speed.



Essential power for flight management is still available from an emergency wind turbine. Remember that a B777-200ER and especially newer versions can be remote piloted or even UAV.


B777 designed to glide to land with auto pilot, all engines off.
If landed on the ocean in one piece and sunk without breaking up, may never be found, I think.
