Using sonar data from a deep-sea drone, Tony Romeo, a former intelligence officer for the United States Air Force, thinks he has located the wreckage of American flier Amelia Earhart’s plane on the Pacific Ocean.
Romeo intends to begin a mission later this year or early next to locate the plane, after a thorough US search in 1937 was unsuccessful.
“She’s the most well-known missing person in America, right? Romeo stated, “There will always be someone out there looking for her as long as she’s missing.” “If we can help bring closure to this story and bring Amelia home, we’d be super excited.”
Five years later, American pilot Amelia Earhart succeeded Charles Lindbergh as the first woman and second person to fly solo and nonstop across the Atlantic in 1932.
According to Reuters.
When Earhart’s plane vanished over the Pacific, she and her navigator, Fred Noonan, were trying to circumnavigate the globe.
According to Romeo, CEO of Deep Sea Vision, the wreckage of Amelia Earhart’s plane is thought to be more than 5,000 meters below the sea, roughly 160 kilometers from Howland Island, which lies midway between Australia and Hawaii.
According to him, a plane-like form can be seen on the flat, sandy ocean bottom in hazy sonar photos captured by a drone.
