Nobody knows if you and Chock are friends, and you were just toying with him, or if you were being serious. I took it as you being funny. I could have been wrong. It wouldn't be the first time. My apologies. Regards, Jazz
July 7, 20178 yr In before the lock. Same old same old. Any minute now someones going to bring up P3D V4 - and then it'll all go "avsim wrong".

My apologies. Regards, Jazz I thought your post was funny, and Chock seems to have a good, healthy, Brit sense of humour, so I'm sure he wouldn't be offended. I didn't see any need for you to apologise. Some people are just very easily offended, I guess.

My apologies. Regards, Jazz Thanks for the reply. I guess things don't come across in print the way intended. Some times I print things and reread it later and think "man, that sounded stupid." Have a great week end. Sincerely, Vic G. Vic green
July 8, 20178 yr Yes interacting on Forums is tunnel vision, having a pint in a pub you have eye contact and read body language and a comment comes across as it should, not so over the world pipe sometimes. Matthew Kane I'm Dyslexic, what's an error to you is not to me
July 8, 20178 yr No worries, Vic. Have a good week-end. Now to get this thread back on topic. Amelia. http://ameliaearhart.com/biography/
July 9, 20178 yr It just seems to me that "his hairline", and "her short hair" and a blob that might be a plane, are awful slim pickin's. Reminds me of "sure thing" photos of bigfoot. Possible? Sure, but not from this photo. How many old photographs could we dig up and do something similar? Bob i5, 16 GB ram, GTX 960, FS on SSD, Windows 10 64 bit, home built works anyway.
July 9, 20178 yr Here's a pretty authoritative take-down of the Saipan theory... and also of TIGHAR's theory... by Clive Irving, who knows his aviation. Worth a look. Alan Ampolsk"Ah, Paula, they are firing at me!"-- Saint-Exupery
July 11, 20178 yr NPR just ran an article with new info showing the photo is probably from 1935: http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/07/11/536620463/japanese-blogger-points-out-timeline-flaw-in-supposed-earhart-photo X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Simulator on Windows 10 i7 6700 4.0 GHz, 32 GB RAM, GTX 1660 ti, 1920x1200 monitor

Thanks for sharing. The original sources (book image and Japanese blogger's post) linked in the NPR story are worth a look too. Alan Ampolsk"Ah, Paula, they are firing at me!"-- Saint-Exupery
July 12, 20178 yr Actually the history channel is not doing history again. A Japanese researcher found the photo in question in a Japanese language travel book published in October of 1935. They probably used the same fact checkers they use on Ancient Aliens and UFO Files. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/new-amelia-earhart-photo-bs_us_59664c48e4b005b0fdca6dae?ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009
