Many photographs and conflicting analyses still being reviewed.

Would be interesting if Paul Allen directed efforts to scouring that area for remains of the Earhart plane.

Big ocean -— little island. The Lockheed Electra Model 10 was a lousy boat.
Most of these surviving the ditching theories are based upon a decision to seek out other islands which were too far away based upon a critical fuel situation.
Lots of aircraft have been lost in the Pacific. Ask Eddie Rickenbacker.

Goes against the supposedly strong theory of Amelia being a POW and executed on Saipan while her plane was burned and buried on the current runway with other damaged Jap zero’s.

No DNA...no teeth....no 99%

Agree- the heading caught my attention - as it was designed to - and I posted the thread before reading all the details - it’s still the same old ‘scientific’ mumbojumbo - proving nothing. This will go on for another 100 years.

The real mystery is where are the bones? If they had the bones, they could do DNA analysis, then it's thumbs up or thumbs down, and case closed.
To: sodpoodle
I watched this story and it wreaked of drawing a conclusion then finding facts to support the conclusion rather than the other way around. There are way too many “proofs” that Earhart died here or died there for me to be satisfied on this alone. I want DNA evidence not a statistical possibility of bone mass.

Aaaahhhh, but then that would effectively KILL the brouhaha over Ms. Earhart's disappearance, now wouldn't it? As it is now, they can wildly speculate that she was a POW or that we will never know what truly happened or all kinds of other stupidity.

Yeah. Like bigfoot, and UFOs, there is a cottage industry built around Amelia Earhart. I wonder if her bones really "disappeared" or were just buried somewhere after concluding they were a man's bones.
American wingnuts, gotta love em'—LOL. I remember hearing rumors and stories that John Kennedy's brain disappeared, and that his real casket was shot full of holes and buried at sea!

If you find Elvis then you will find Amelia.

“The real mystery is where are the bones? If they had the bones, they could do DNA analysis, then it’s thumbs up or thumbs down, and case closed.”
Probably in some collectors showroom.
People collect all kinds of strange things so the probable bones of Amelia Earhart would be worth a pretty penny.
Enough to bribe an official to publicly declare them to come from a male, then issue a letter stating the bones are from the female flyer.
The world of collecting can be strange and some things VERY strange.

Allegedly it was George Prescott Bush and some fellow members who raided the grave.
And then there is the old legend that there is a fraternity at UNC Chapel Hill which for well over a century has in its possession a goblet made from the skull of Blackbeard the pirate.

Thanks sodpoodle.
...bones discovered on the Pacific Island of Nikumaroro in 1940... were subsequently lost, continue to be a source of debate.
Looks and smells more like TIGHAR, and it was about the right time for their annual pump-and-dump.

Those very old college frats have some strange stories about them. I wouldn’t doubt many of them were true.
Considering it’s the Skull and Bones and a Bush was involved, I tend to believe it.
Blackbeards skull being possessed by a NC frat is believable since he considered the Carolinas his “garden” where he picked off many merchant ships. He was also killed just off Ocracoke island, NC.
