- One of aviation's greatest mysteries could finally be solved. A deep-sea exploration company has announced the discovery of what could be the remains of Amelia Earhart's aircraft. American aviator Amelia Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan disappeared over the Pacific Ocean in 1937 during their ambitious attempt to circumnavigate the globe.

That sonar image could be anything, a lot of planes were lost in that area during the second world war. Saying it's Amelia Earhart's plane without confirmation is crazy.
Agreed. It could very easily be a B-25 or a Mitsubishi G3M.
Yes, very presumptuous captions saying Earhart's aircraft has been found. Let's see some pictures from an ROV first.
Good comment
It’s CNN it’s complete garbage they’ll make a finding a rock look like magic to its mind numbed followers.
There was no combat in that area of the Pacific
Great video, but lose the annoying, mind numbing music..............................
The music is toe-tapping fun! 🎉
Right. Very annoying music.
and the endless repeat of the media tiles ...
with their piss poor grammar and spelling
Yes that is very annoying and intrusive, didn´t even watch the video till the end because of that.
yeah, I had to stop watching. Why do people think they need to add such a non stop annoying addition to their story.
Whether it’s her plane or not…..they found an aircraft, that could have a body of someone that went missing long ago. Could bring closure to someone in this world. And that worth it.
It looks like a Jap "Betty" bomber. Many of them on the ocean floor.
No other reported aircrafts have crashed in that area since she made her flight
There will not be a body not even bones probly the ocean is alive don't forget
Couple things, if they got it down in one piece, they probably survived the ditching. So I'm going to guess they got out of the plane instead of saying "I guess the captain and 1st mate go down with the ship". Also if they were in it there is 0 chance a body remains.
The wreck is deeper then the Titanic.
There will be no bodies down there.
Find Malaysian MH370 too ✈️
We need another 75 years to find MH370
You'll never find it. Somebody shot it down and covered it up.
Wouldnt that be something
Unfortunately, the sea floor where MH 370 is thought to rest is very rugged and difficult even for modern high-tech sonar equipment. The sonar seach for MH 370 did discover a couple of ships that went down in the Indian Ocean. Probabley, they were unsolved mysteries on some shipping registry somewhere "lost at sea" never to reach their next port of call. You just have to keep doing box searches with sonar, which is difficult for the Indian ocean can get fairly rough at times with low pressure weather systems causing heavy seas.
Look for an island named Diego Garcia. Very black ops.
Whilst at training at Flight Safety myself , I met an ex US helicopter pilot who became a buddy over about a week . This was about 20 years ago . He told me that whist on duty aboard a US aircraft career near Howland island he was ordered to do a photo recce of the area . He was a solid and professional man whom I could see was a person of integrity. Upon flying over an area of coast on one of the islands in the area he flew over a reef and could clearly see an Electra submerged about 20 feet under the water on a shelf . He took photos , pin pointed the reef and radio'd to the ship . He was ordered to return and hand over the photos which he did . I was amazed at the story and asked why he'd never spoken about this ? He said he'd not been able to but would at some time in the future . I had his address in Switzerland where he lived then but never stayed in touch . I should have , he was a fascinating guy .
@@douglasbanks3318 interesting, thank you very much .
They have no evidence at all. go down and look for a serial number or some id feature. That is not going to take 5 years.
I’ve heard stories that such a plane was found in shallow waters. But that it was not what they were looking for
It is believed that she survived for a long time after going down. I read some years ago ( I am 49) that on an Island, that piles of fish bones along with other animal bones were found but, no body was found. As a child and into my teens, I researched the case extensively.
Interesting storie
Anyone kept track of how many times Amelia or her plane have been "found?"
Janeway found her in the delta quadrant!😁
Who cares?
@@leeeastwood6368 lol was looking for this comment 😎
the most found plane in history
You beat me to it. Haaaaaa @@leeeastwood6368
Hopefully, I will live long enough to see this spectacular moment of retrieving her aircraft from the bottom of the sea. Congratulations to you all who did not give up searching for Amelia and her plane.
I don't know if they could bring it up intact. Like the Titanic water pressure is the only thing holding the plane together. If they were to pick the plane up out of the water it would disintegrate
It is not confirmed and most likely not her plane...very un;likely so dont think her plane has been found...because it has not been found yet.
Just so positive !@@maineman5924
Don't hold your breath, partner. Over 200 marines Saw it on Saipan and around 50 saw it buried in a pit underneath Alito airport.👌😉
it is debatable as to whether or not it's the real deal. i too, would love to see them bring the plane up. that's the only way we'll know for sure.
Having found a half dozen or so aircraft in the ocean along with well over a hundred shipwrecks, I can professionally say this effort was done very well. The captions claiming definitively that it is her plan are misleading. You do not know until you have definitive proof. This can come from forensics, personal effects, serial numbers, technical details that are bespoke, and more. Too many times I have seen colleagues including myself be "certain" only to be shocked. Such is the nature of deep-sea exploration, sonar, etc. By background, I am an oceanographer and engineering geophysicist. I have used similar equipment for similar tasks as well. Regardless of the outcome, they did a very good job. It isn't easy.
You forgot their skeletons.
@@henryottis295 I mentioned forensics. However, in this case the wreckage, regardless of whose it is, lays below the CCD. Calcium Compensation Depth. Below this depth, calcium dissolves. This is about 4500m. Therefore, bones dissolve. No skeleton(s). This is why we find boots and shoes on and around deep wrecks with no bones. Just FYI, not to be morbid.
If they can just prove it is a Lockheed Model 10E Electra I'd be pretty well satisfied. They only built 15 of them and one is accounted for in a museum.
An honest factual opinion. Thanks! Often I would think these kinds of so called reporting on historical finds are actually just attempts at raising further research funds for more exploration.
Are there no billionaire's that want to find the answeres this this and other world mysteries? Like the millions of people and huge cities sited in the Amazon in the 1500's and 100 years later it is gone? Or the Arch? If so they can throw all they money needed to study and locate these things. The equipment and experts are there. All that is needed are the correct permits and funding. Is this maybe fround upon to in the industry to pander for money? There has to be someone with the money that wants to be the one to find the answeres.
I have heard this at least 6 times during my life so far. I hope this is it. Would be great to finally put an end to the mystery.
Like any RUclips breakthrough destined to be oft repeated and nothing actually changed. It would be good if RUclips could have a specific user clickbait title flag box so there is some control of this.
Yes
@@michaeld5888 Just the three letters "CNN" should tell you something...
They can't find her because the UFO conspirators need something to believe in
Amelia Earhart has been found as often as fusion power is "just around the corner, thanks to a new discovery!".
What concerns me in the photo are the plane's wings seem swept back and her plane's wings are not of that configuration.
Exactly what I am thinking.
I agree but upon impact they may have folded !
She tried to skid on top of water the wings broke preobaly and plane filled with water I bet u 1 million $ this is the plane
The stabilizers did it for me, I believe this is finally it. I hope they’re able to successfully raise it, but preserve rather than restore!! That plane is in the books and needs to be what it is!!
Oh, you may be on to something. @@rogerstephens8019
The searchers seem to have assumed that only Ehrhardt s plane could have gone down in this area. Case of confirmation bias... they're looking for her plane, they found a plane, it MUST be her plane. Doubtful.
Everyone on here keep talking about it having swept wings. You do realize this is a sonar image, right? It reflects differently off different densities of the fuselage and wings. It also may be reflecting at an angle. If the plane is slightly nose down it may be reflecting at an angle and looking like swept wings. It could be any of dozens of planes though. Only way to know for sure is to send an ROV down to look at it.
One person is not everyone
I scrolled through and counted at least 4 separate posts saying the same thing. @@johnhironimus5748
@@johnhironimus5748 far more than one person
doesnt matter the angle, straight wings arent going to look angled
If you stare at something long enough, it begins to look like the object you're looking for.
A grainy distant sonar image can look like anything you want it to look like, so we need to get close enough for positive I.D.
I stared at my wife for ages but she never ended up looking like Halle Berry.
1st time I heard this story, my uncle who was stationed in the pacific, told me of a woman flying a plane where his ship sailed through the area. As a kid, I couldn't get enough. That was 65 years ago. I'll never stop following this story.
Thats 20+ yrs after Amelia Earhart went missing
65 years ago is when he heard the story@@mmayes9466
@@mmayes9466 I think the OP means that it was 65 years ago that _he_ was told the story, not that his uncle's ship was stationed in the Pacific 65 years ago.
No life raft so did the Sharks eat Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan ?
@@BIGBADWOOD1) do we know if they’ve taken life rafts (too heavy, not modern light weight), 2) their bones may still be down there inside the plane.
Both Australia and New Zealand operated the A-29 Hudson, the military version of the Electra, in the Pacific Theater.
That IS what I thought, PLENTY of twin engine planes crashed into the sea during WWII!
I don't believe a single word of it
LOTS of aircraft went down in the Pacific in WW2...
THAT IS VERY TRUE,-AND A LOT OF JAP ZEROS ARE DOWN THERE,TOO !
@@jim7544 What a waste.
Trying using the phrase "supposedly found Erharts plane"
Exactly. Without proof it’s nothing
This is another "Fake" Find!
"Long Lost Plane Found?" What part of the ?????? Do you not understand It means the plane could have been found, but that doesn't mean it was found.
@@sasquatch6750 Kinda like you!! lol
I agree this could be her plane. Nothing has been proven as of yet>
RIP...... Amelia.....
That has all the characteristics of a Mitsubishi g3m which was prominent in the area during ww2
Click Bait… Not confirmed
No it's not confirmed, he said he believes he has found it he never once said it's confirmed till they can get a camra down there.
could be a pile of whale-crap--there's mountains of it !!
People need to be skeptical of any "news" that's only coming from one source.
Not clickbait, there’s a question mark in the title.
I remember being incredibly fascinated by this story as a kid.
Me too
I'm sure it's a plane down there. I'm curious to know which plane. All of this media attention should bring in more donations to help fund the next search with the ROV.
Unsolved mysteries sheds a different light on this mystery, that she and the plane were taken hostage by Japan and the interviews from the eyewitness really makes you think twice about the original story of going down in the sea
@@lovejetfuel4071 My biggest curiosity is what all of the confident conspiracy theorists will say the day her plane is found. If it's ever found. Someone will be correct, but many will be wrong.
Dig under Alito Airfield and you will find it.😮 use ground penetrating radar. Now that's an effort worth funding.
Well the next step is to get a ROV down there to get eyes on it and confirm its the Electra
That would be insane if its confirmed to be the lost plane! That would be the biggest discovery of this century (so far) for sure!
Nah Malaysia 380
yeah, plane went down she dead. story should be over decades ago.
Still looking for intelligent life in the Biden white house.
@@einarbk885 everyone knows this, they still want details and finding her plane will fascinate millions for some reason.
@@warrenmichael918 its almost like i have more respect for people walking thru woods looking for bigfoot than some guys examining satellite photos looking for an old missing airplane. atleast they get out of the house. many are obessed with the rusty wreck of the titanic also, to the point of dying before they could see it thru a tiny window. stockton rush claimed sitting on the floor of his sub is better than scuba diving wtf. many dont even know titanic had a almost identical sister ship the sailed years after the titanic sunk, so death is clearly very fancy.
Okay he speaks like these are well known facts. People don't know where she was at. She was lost. She did not know where she was at neither did her navigator. But who's to say this is her plane and not one of the countless ones from world War II and from other times.
Great video. Thanks for posting this. Have a nice day.
If I was planning on finding plane I would take submersible lights cameras so I didn't have to speculate ✈️🤔
That area of the Pacific is littered with thousands of aircraft that went to the bottom in WWII, so don`t hold your breath.
A mission for oceangate
Yeah right ha ha
😂 "Here's a rubber ducky raft, goggles, and a snorkel. Let's go find it."
- Ocean gate probably
Good one
THANK YOU SO MUCH. PLEASE KEEP US UPDATED.
Yep ! That's a swept wing aircraft ,not an Electra. Both wing sweep angles are the same so highly unlikely to be landing damage !
You might be right but , what if that plane is laying flat and half buried in sand and silt? The ocean current could have buried the front of the wings like that , making them appear to be at that angle. I dont know if thats even possible but it MIGHT be something along those lines, maybe?
Take Your time and find us a dual stabilizer, swept wing, wing mounted dual reciprocating engine plane. Use Google Images, check back with us when You locate that unicorn 🦄
Indeed, that is perplexing.
now they need some clear video recording of the plane up close, and as many of the markings and identifying numbers on the tail, as well as the entire plane from front to back, and top to bottom, to make a positive confirmation it was her plane.
Have you considered why the plane she flew had straight wings and why the images show swept wings? Okay, maybe the wings broke and swept back. Maybe.
It's not her plane
He has said the image is distorted in other interviews.
Sonar bounces waves off of an object and reflects back the more dense areas best. Could be the main spars or the angle of the wing showing it that way. Only way to truly know is send an ROV down to check it out. Time will tell I guess.
@@kl0wnkiller912 Yes. It's just that the narrative has been set before all the evidence is in. It's the way it is now.
They conveniently IGNOR the triangulated radio signals received during the week, following her disappearance. Those signals/transmissions, triangulated to the GArdner Island area. Also, her transmissions were heard via short wave harmonics, whose time stamps by the receivers coincided with the low tides, on Gardner, when she could have run the engines, to transmit, during that last week. I very much believe the Gardner Island landing theory, matter how any of y'all cite her fuel load, consumption rate, etc. We do NOT know where they were on the sun line and with fuel conservation techniques, which she was taught, could have made Gardner island. There is enough circumstantial evidence gathered to support that possibility.
Let us know when you are SURE,, then I'll watch and listen,.
How many times over the years have we heard those famous words. Believe it when I see it.
I agree btw whats was wrong with the coconut crabs?
Site is definitely worth a closer look!
Looks like swept wings. Although they could be damaged, or partially covered with sediment.
Looks like a jet plane the way the wings are swept back!
Doesnt even look like a plane at all to me.Could be pieces of a ship...who knows.I do know it is highly unlikely to be her plane.
To me it looks like an American fighter jet, possibly lost during the war
Couldn t have been during WWll. Not many jets than except a few new German ones. But yes it does look like a jet unless the wings are damaged.
@@jjgirl3715 No jets in the Pacific during WWII.
@@user-eb5cb6ud1p "officially "
No way they can confirm anything based on that poor sonar.
This story has always fascinated me, i am so happy they've finally found her plane..great job!
The only way to know for sure is to go down there and look.
Over many.. many years there have been countless tales of people finding wreckage, bones and items, along with stories of a woman surviving on islands etc that supposedly all were connected to Amelia. I will wait for the confirmation, but would love if this is really her plane. She was an icon of America, women and flying. 🛩
Man, I sure hope it to be her plane. She deserves to be home and resting properly. Good luck!!
Not for sure yet
they should ask bob ballard for help to see if it is the plane or not
From memory Hilary Clinton asked him to look but nothing ever came of it.
I thought the same. Ballard finds nearly everything. ;-)
@@paulreichelt1259Would you do anything Hillary asked you to do? Bob's too smart to fall for that, people have died following her.
While this is interesting, it's wise to keep in mind that there was a small matter of World War Two that happened in the area. This could be a plane from that, too.
In 1964 I was aboard my ship USS Brister DER 327 patrolling the Caroline Islands south of Guam. During the patrol, a woman flew nearby while attempting to recreate Amelia Earhart's flight.
If it really is her plane, then i hope they keep the exact location a secret to prevent treasure hunters from disturbing the site
that could be any plane🙄😒
Or anything....for that matter..
Yep
It could also be a WWII airplane, won’t know till a Rover down to see it
I just read about this over at the National Geographic site and a few experts there believe it isn't Earharts plane because of the position of the wings. The wings on Earharts plane jutted out straight from the fuselage while the wings on the plane in the sonar image slant back at an angle towards the tail of the plane similar to the wings of an early jet..
It’s a bit frustrating that they didn’t have an immediate plan for when they found the plane on sonar.
They should have brought an ROV!
I'm pretty sure Josh Gates is gonna feature this in Expeditions Unknown I love that programme in Discovery channel
... He all ready did season 1 episode 1 was about her ..
He finds nothing.
That's what we call him....
The guy that finds nothing.
@@henryottis295he did find a few Roman coins in England once😂
@@FrauUnibrow
😆🤣
Could be a lockeed Hudson or Ventura as well.
Time will tell.
In this video the little "ticker" subtitle things keep making such definitive statements like "Earhart's plane was found..." and "sonar image that shows the outline of Earhart's [plane]," and "Deep Sea Vision announced the find through Instagram."
This is just bad journalism. Talk about jumping the gun. As far as I know, nobody's been down to confirm yet. It's not known whether this is Earhart's plane or not. It's not known whether it's even a plane yet. It's possible that it's just a highly coincidental rock formation. We just don't know. There's a bunch of rocks on Mars that people think is an intentional representation of a human face, after all, but it's a totally natural rock formation that only looks like a face from Earth because of shadows and tricks of the light. Weird things like that happen all the time because, as a rule, humans have apophenia.
There have been many people who have come forward claiming to have found Earhart's plane, and obviously they were all let-downs. I'll grant you, this time is a bit more promising for a few reasons, but the fact remains, we don't really know truly for certain whether it's a plane down there, and if it is a plane, we don't know if it's Earhart's plane. No other record of plane crashes exists for that area, so the likelihood is pretty good, but high likelihood is not the same thing as a guarantee of certainty.
Find a plane in the ocean. Publish a blurry image. Say it was Amelia Earhart's electra. Make a bunch of money. End of story.
@lockman004 Right and Jimmy Hoffa is Probably with them..
Yep, more lies and more money.
Surprised they didn't claim it to be MH370.
@@matthewgodwin3050 i was about to saythat LOL
And as a backup say it would take 10yrs to make an actual recovery attempt.
That would truly close the mystery, what a amazing woman she was.
We shall see if that is really her aircraft and not a WW2 crashed airplane , and if they can find this , why can't they locate MH - 370 ?
I was thinking the same thing. What if that's a Japanese Zero plane or one of ours from the War four years later?🛩🤔
MH370 is about lost in hundreds of thousands of miles of ocean.
Because someone shot it down and covered it up.
How exciting! I hope they are able to raise it. Can't wait to hear more.
She was an amazing woman but it has not been confirmed that this find was her plane!
She was actually not a very good pilot who screwed herself by not knowing Morse Code well which was the best way and tried to communicate by voice.
They need ROV pictures. That sonar trace could be a Mitsubishi G3M or a Kawasaki Ki-56 given that the twin tail configuration is realistically visible in the image.
I call NONSENSE on this whole story! They have ZERO proof it's her plane and in fact are not even sure it is a plane! How many times have we heard this same story over the decades!
It's not her plane
Ahhh yawn...maybe try being positive instead of pessimist.
He's hasn't confirmed it's her plane.. he's been looking for her plane and it is the shape of her plane ,he has said the image is distorted which makes the wings look swept back as dose the tail wings..
Good luck with your work mate, I hope you find it ❤❤❤.
Pity you couldn't find a quiet place to make such an important film.
he lost 11 nillion , now he's trying to get it back some way - thats not her plane .
Looks more like one of the enormous battleship/aircraft carrier ANCHORS from WWII.
Because the plane didn't sink immediately, it's entirely possible that she and Noonan got into a life raft. However, it's a really big ocean and even in a life raft, their chances of surviving wouldn't be very good. Yes, there was a search but resources were limited and basically consisted of flying around in a plane looking.
The massive fuel tanks, empty of fuel at the time, would have probably kept the aircraft afloat for some time allowing the pilot and navigator to exit the aircraft. Images appear to show a jet aircraft anyway.
How cool finally some closure ,but also excitment too quell all the rumours and find possibly her and the plane .nice work so far men
16,500 feet down, never gonna raise it.
Wings are different
Can't wait for up dates
Great video; thanks for posting. I loved the Star Trek: Voyager episode where they found her alive.
It looks like a plane but which plane?
I guess in time we will see.
Amelia Earhart was a fantastic woman and a heroine for being so brave to even attempt to try what she did.
Yes
Some say overambitious. A short while before she started around the world, she tested the radio-location procedure that was supposed to get her to find Howland Island out in the middle of the Pacific; the test was to fly from California out a little ways over the Pacific Ocean, then turn around to see if the radio could find San Francisco for her. It did not work, but her husband, who was also her ambitious business manager and publicist, kept encouraging her to make the flight before she fell out of the headlines for too long. Then she had a few mishaps along the last journey. Damaged her plane taking off at the start of the trip. Lost one of her radio antennas taking off on the leg to Howland Island. They were out there, pretty close to where they should have been, but they didn't know it because they were above the clouds, lost, transmitting on the antenna that was not lost, but trying to hear the response using the antenna that they didn't know they had left behind on takeoff. A very, very sad ending.
@@GuitarRyder11 Go smoke some weed and relax ffs!... tomorrow maybe a better day for you.
Remember this is a sonar image (like a seismic image) so distortion is common at such depths (5000 m). There's no doubt it is a twin-tailed, twin-engine aircraft. I wouldn't get too hung up on if the wings were broken, swept back, or otherwise disfigured. Besides, that might have happened after spiraling down 5000 m. Send down the ROV and let's find out!
Why do you keep stating that they found her plane? It’s not confirmed at all!! 👎🏼
U think she could have survived and succumb to weather
No way. She probably died in hours
The wings in the image appear to be swept back at an angle, where her wings were not. Could this be from impact?
Obviously a swept wing. You need pictures.
Send a couple of billionaires down there to find out ! 🚢⚓️
Ouch!
Bad joke but funny mate
Billionaires get rich by not caring about what happened to a lost aviator in 1937
1: Earhart and Noonan did not know Mores Code (could not understand the transmissions from the USCG Itasca). 2: Earhart took off the "radio directional antenna" (could not hear the direction of the Mores Code). 3: Noonan miscalculated location from being on the south side of the equator. 4: No water on Gardner Island (Nikumaroro) to survive. 5: Noonan may have been kill by sharks on Gardner.
I hope they find her shoes in the cockpit, it would mean she died quickly and not over days or weeks floating in the ocean, hoping for rescue. RIP Amelia.
🇦🇺🖐.Wow this is bloody Awesome to find the plane 👏 after so many years 👏 😊.
Not the plane it’s nessy hiding 😮
What plane is this?
l can't believe these bone heads keep discovering her plane. Not at that depth, not with swept wings and NO engines. No. Just another slow media day.
Ffs , he has said in other interviews the image is distorted, the rear wing is also distorted in the image and they can't confirm it till they get a camera down there..maybe try not to be such a pessimist and maybe postive that it "could" be her plane... if it's not its not at least their trying.
@@paulreichelt1259 Ffs - had to look that up :) You're right of course. I should be excited and optimistic.
While you're looking at the image, enlarge it a bit and look att the background. All of us armchair explores should be able to sort out the lines, bits, and pieces laying around the main image. On my copy, there is also a vertical red line and a blue line that look like what you'd see from cropping if you took a screen cap for an image with cropping lines present. In looking at the image in detail, there are also a number of objects present, in at least the same clarity, ON the wings. It would be fun to see what those are too. The important thing is we donate to help these guys get to go out again some time.
Leave her Rest in Peace where she is!
I'd love to know for sure..
Does Hervé Villechaize know about this? Da plane, da plane!
How do they know this isn't one of the over 100,000 planes that went down during WW2? I'd be curious to see how this sonar image compares to other planes. I'll be more interested after they have dive imagery like the Titanic, no need to raise her.
Finding her place is like finding a needle in a needle stack, in a pool.
We hope this is her plain . God rest her soul 🙏
I hope this is true. Watching from Ontario Canada 🎉
If they have actually found it, it should be filmed and left where it is. If any of the crews still in it, it's been a grave for all these years !
There is serious documentation of radio distress calls from her long after she would have run out of fuel. She could not have sent distress messages if she had ditched. It's not her plane.
It's like that "face " on mars. Looks right at an angle.
If the plane in sonar image doesn't have NR 16020 written on wing and tail, it's not Amelia's plane.
lol ,no shitt?
If that's her plane it a historic discovery. But a lot of people believed she crashed on that island. It was finding the evidence that was hard.
Very interesting documentary, spoiled by the totally mind numbing background music, !!
Can’t wait for the results.
And she had many problems using her radio . . . Fred Noonan mostly did the radio contact
The radio reception antenna broke off the bottom of the plane as she was taking off from the rough runway surface at Lae . It is unfortunate the radio was not tested shortly into the flight.
Nearly 15,000 feet down? That sounds very deep. How do you raise a plane of this size from such a depth... starting with digging it out from the muddy bottom? I wish them luck!
