    I'll believe it once we see it. I doubt it's her plane.

      The enhanced picture shows a completely different wing style than Earhart's plane, so yeah, it's not hers.

    First off, it's so deep underwater that nobody is getting it up to the surface, and secondly the wings are swept back and Earhart's airplane weren't like that.

      WWII fighter plane?....with the "swept" back wings?

      Hitting the water could cause the shape of the wings if not outright rip them off

    If it's deeper than the Titanic it was probably crushed like a tin can.

      The water pressure would have no effect on a non watertight vessel or aircraft if there are no sealed air pockets.

    • @patrickporter6536
      @patrickporter6536 9 месяцев назад +1

      It wasn't a sealed system so pressure inside=pressure outside. Apply brain before posting.

      Ever see a Styrofoam cup come up from the titanic depth? Its a plastic ball by the end it is still alot of pressure

    • @BeltFedToys
      @BeltFedToys 9 месяцев назад +1

      That's because styrofoam is mostly filled with air bubbles and they collapse under the pressure.

    As much as I'd like to see the mystery solved, I hope it's not her plane. Too much is being made of this before they find out for sure.

    Didn't her plane break into pieces? And even if they found it, I'd say it's the property of whoever owned it at the time, or their estate. Since when does Finders Keepers make a compelling argument once you leave school?

    • @BeltFedToys
      @BeltFedToys 9 месяцев назад

      It's called salvage rights. Since the family did not recover the plane and it's abandoned for all this time anyone that finds it can claim it. Depending on whether it's in international or a country's territorial waters different laws apply.
      Even in the USA if you find property it is supposed to be delivered to law enforcement. They then have an obligation to hold it for a specified period to give the rightful owner time to claim it. If it is not claimed within that time you can place a claim on it. Just make sure you get a receipt for the property you turn over to them.

    I would imagine that the aerodynamics of the plane helped its rapid decent to the ocean floor, cutting through the water until its collision with the sea bed. The radar image shown may suggest that the nose of the plane has detached and is sitting to the bottom left of the image. It would also explain the angle of the wings and why they seem to look a little different than the actual picture of the plane. The wings simply broke off after impact and came to rest along side the aircraft, as the aircrafts momentum kept pushing it forward on the sea floor, offsetting the wings from their original position. Not to mention deterioration, it has not been found but im sure we can all agree, deterioration has done its part for sure.
    Keep up the amazing work, stay safe out there.

    Amelia Earhart’s plane was the Lockheed Electra L 10e. This was an early day airliner and later used in the war effort. If this plane is indeed an Electra L 10e, then it should be remembered that Lockheed built 149 of them. And let’s consider the Lockheed P38 Lightening. Same configuration, dual engine and duel tails. And it’s almost the same size, Less than 1 foot difference in length and only 3 feet difference in wingspan. Lockheed built over 3800 p38’s and many are lying on the bottom of the pacific. Honestly, their sonar images doesn’t show much of anything. It would be great if they can someday prove it’s her plane, then salvage it and put it in a museum where it belongs. I can’t even count how many times they’ve supposedly found her plane. Sorry guys… but you’ll need to come up with more proof than this.

    Well, it does belong in the Smithsonian. But....Is the Smithsonian funding this? I don't think so. The salvage company deserves to make everything they can if the plane can be recovered. I would pay to see it.

      Finders keepers?? That’s for children, something doesn’t belong to you just because you find it. If you find a wallet someone dropped, it doesn’t make it yours. How about a pet that got out of its yard, do you keep the animal. What about land? If I go find an uninhabited island, do I have a right just to tell everyone it’s mine? How about a car? If you find a car someone left unlocked can you just jump in it and say “finders keepers. What about a cell phone? Someone loses their phone, do you keep that? What are you a thief?? Finders keepers isn’t a real thing. You don’t have a right to keep something just because you found it. That’s childish nursery rhyme. The only people who say “finders keepers” and are serious are people with no conscious. Funny, I bet if you lost money or your phone and someone said “finders keepers” to you, you’d be pissed and want your things back. Have you ever lost anything? If she owned the plane, it should go to her family. They can decide what’s done with it. Not that I think it’ll ever be found. I’m just amazed people actually think they have rights to things just because they find it. Humans really are a selfish species.
