Nauticos has the most reasonable explanation for her disappearance and appears to be searching in the right area. There is no way she made it south to another island.
The true course from Lae to Howland is approximately 78 degrees (68.5 degree compass). The distance is 2556 miles or 2221 nautical miles with a 9.49 degree east magnetic declination near Howland. X=sin(inverse)(517÷distance) 2556, x=11.67, 90-11.67=78.33 degree true course. 78-9.49=68.5 degree compass. 2221, x=13.46, 90-13.46=76.54 degree true course. 76.54-9.49= 67.05 degree compass!! Did you catch the math error? Which 67 degrees and which 157-337 LOP do you think they were using?
she's probably in another timeline now considering that she was very likely a time traveler - look at the front of her airplane in mainstream photos, it clearly looks like CERN's atom collider. you are welcome ;)
Question, there are two 157-337 LOP and there are also two 67 degrees and BOTH are located north of Howland Island. A 67 degree compass (magnetic) is 1.5 degrees (80 miles) north of Howland. Which 157-337 LOP was she referring to and which 67 degrees is the 157-337 LOP based on?
The second I saw that LEGO set I knew I had to have it. Luckily, I was able to find one.
@ChrisEvanFilms Thanks for sharing this awesome program! Love the Air & Space Museum! 🙏
Both Fred and Amelia should have learned morse code and the direction finder before they tried the round the world flight
Fantastic footage and wonderfull facts.The 1930s were an exciting era for aviation,thanks for the video.

Amelia and Fred didn’t know CW or Morse Code and didn’t have good knowledge of radio equipment that is tragedy,
she's probably in another timeline now considering that she was very likely a time traveler - look at the front of her airplane in mainstream photos, it clearly looks like CERN's atom collider. you are welcome ;)
I love the whole episode. Greetings from Ukraine!

No
Are u looking for me? My real name is Amelia 😆 (Just a joke cool vid!)
