Alright. Dredge up an engine with matching serial numbers and we will call it solved.

Whatever, subby.
Its not like there could be that many aircraft unaccounted for in the Pacific ocean.

Yeah, but it's a repeat of just the other day... So, yeah, there's that.

What's the difference between Amelia Earhart and Helen Keller?

The plane crashed, mystery solved.

Nope,
They left Nikumaroro with photo and video but the last things they were looking at, a wing and another object turned out to be a ship hull and then a rock.

This is just more AW for Discovery channel and everyone involved.

NO SMOKING GUN...

JonnyG: Yeah, but it's a repeat of just the other day... So, yeah, there's that.

With an extra helping of incromulent grammar.

/How many Romans?

Star Trek already gave a viable explanation.

Might be wreckage. A picture proves diddly squat.
Engines or parts or equipment number plates, personal effects like a watch, etc.
No mention of depth or anything like a generally specific location.

Not a divable site?
ROV couldn't pick anything up?

Real pieces or GTFO.

MatrixOutsider: I found her!

Dude, that's Hellen Keller.

Dumbass,
That's Shirley Temple.

Not only was she blind, deaf and dumb, (but the sure could play a mean pinball) but she was only 9 year old so she couldn't have flow that aircraft with Lindburgh.

I thought they figured that one out in '95

Obiwontaun: MatrixOutsider: I found her!

Dude, that's Hellen Keller.

No it isn't. It's Susan B. Anthony.

Women drivers, man. Women drivers.

I thought she lived and went on to design a line of rugged outdoorsman coats and overalls?

She probably went shopping and forgot to tell anybody. Silly women.

Professor Science: JonnyG: Yeah, but it's a repeat of just the other day... So, yeah, there's that.

When in Rome...

Helen Keller never saw it coming?

You're both wrong. It's clearly Rosa Parks.

Seriously,
FTFD last evening it was amazing to see the interview from the woman who was a teenager who picked up her radio communications on a home radio set in July 1937. She had detailed notes from hours of hearing AE on a big box living room radio when she was just scanning the airwaves. They also went back and checked the tide tables and it corresponded with the radio transmission times from when AE supposed went back to the aircraft and was able to run the engines long enough to operate the generators and then use the radio.

No, Hitler didn't kill Amelia Earhart

/Honestly, I came up with the joke before the punchline
//Like your answer better

She realized she shouldn't be in an airplane, went home, cooked supper, cleaned the house, and wrote a well known series of children's books.

I heard Amelia Earhart was Obama's real mother!

She was eaten by teh Crabs. She was probably still alive when they started... probably not when they finished.

Yeah, that 1938 photo of the supposed wrecked plane's wheel?
 
That's a ship wreck right there. So finding evidence of man made wreckage in the area is really not much of a surprise.

Interesting activity on that island:

After a careful examination of the pixels, I've concluded that the objects shown are actually the remains of a plesiosaurus, a large marine reptile once thought to be extinct.

This is one of those "great enduring mysteries" I'll just never understand...why the fark anyone has EVER cared about a woman who got lost in a plane. I spent a month lost in Paris and no one cared.

from your link...

Later that evening Betty's father reported the event to the local Coast Guard station but he was told that the government had ships in the area and everything was under control. Betty kept her notebook and, over the years, occasionally tried to get someone to pay attention to her claims

That's the exact same end most UFO coverup stories end with.

You reallllly believe that through alll the years since the crash, NOBODY would want to pay attention? With tabloid shows, etc you don't think Geraldo, Maury Povichm would have used this for a ratings grab? riiiiiiiiiiight.

First of all, that looks like a whole lot of nothing.

Second, the oceans are full of man-made debris.

If you've got pictures of what you think is pieces of Earhart's plane, how about you go to the spot where the photos were taken and see what you can find, and if you find something that truly looks like it could be a piece of her plane THEN you let us know, okay?

Seriously, it's like the boy who cried wolf with these people. "Hey, I think I found her!" "Hey, I think I found her!" "Hey, I really think I found her this time!" How about you STFU until you actually found her? Is that so hard?

I don't know if they've made a newer documentary, but I saw one a few months ago that was all about finding AE and the TIGHAR expeditions and all that.

I also found that bit about what Betty heard and wrote down to be pretty freakin interesting.

This is the main reason why I'm so fascinated with stories about Amelia Earhart's disappearance. A lot of these Pacific islands have very interesting history. Howland Island, for example, is less than 2 miles long but had its residents slaughtered by Japanese aircrafts, Used for guano mining, an airfield that disappeared, and once was tried as a colony by the United States. Visitors today who manage to reach the island can find a plaque dedicated to Earhart.

These TIGHAR people use the worst junk-science. They constantly neglect to mention that all sorts of groups of people have lived there, before and since. This belies their endless "we found a jar" BS.
