If it turn out to be her plane then I'm sure we'll be hearing a lot more about it.

Finally we'll know what happened to that amazing lady.

Great story if it ends up being her plane!

That was my first thought. Nowhere near where it's supposed to be. That and if the local authorities have known about it for so long why on earth would they have not tried to capitalize on it in some way.

There have been a whole lot of "finds" over the years. Wondering what eager reporter inserted the suggestion of "human remains" in a 78-year old ocean wreck?

Hope to hear more on this soon. Will be interesting to see pics if it turns out to be true.

Nice Cord (Sportsman?) I think she had a lot of money.

No, but her husband did.

Moral of the story: don't let your wife take the airplane out for a jaunt across the Pacific because she may end up a thousand miles off course.

Glancing at the thread title I thought this was about Dale.

This was not even close if it is her plane: Were they circling out there? I thought they ran low on fuel?

Bad weather? Mechanical issue? Looking for a ditching location? Who knows at this point...

Based on that picture it looks like the plane crash site is right on the logical course.

Sad.

Not so sad:

We have a 'bit of Amelia' down here in a small but absolutely amazing motor musuem in Maffra.

Great album, great song.

People will tell you where they've gone
They'll tell you where to go
But till you get there yourself you never really know
Where some have found their paradise
Other's just come to harm

How could they lose a cup car in turn 3 with 100000 people there?

Read today some bones found on some island were inconclusive for DNA.
