Another Attempt to Solve the Amelia Earhart Mystery-- Part 1

From the March 21st Goldsboro (NC) News Argus "New clue gives hope at solving 75-year-old Amelia Earhart mystery," AP.

People have been wondering and searching for 75 years about what happened to American aviator Amelia Earhart somewhere in the South Pacific all those years ago. But now, a new search based on new information will be carried out and would it be something if they found the remains of her plane or even her.

An existing photograph from the first search just months after her Lockheed Electra plane disappeared has had enhanced analysis and experts think they may have spotted a landing gear on the island of Nikumarora in what is now the country of Kiribati.

Historians, scientists and salvagers from The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery will be back at the island in July hoping to find wreckage and remains of Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan.

More to Come. --Cooter
