Thread: Amelia Earhart
03/07/2018 00:58:29

Hello Model Engineer members, …..David Billings in Queensland Australia….

One of your members alerted me to this Forum Topic as I have my own interest and theory concerning the loss of Earhart, Noonan and the Electra.

In April 1945, a Patrol of Australian Diggers saw some interesting wreckage in the Jungle of East New Britain, located about 40 nautical miles from Rabaul. A map used by this Patrol, which had been kept as a souvenir, was found to have some cryptic writing on the map edge hidden under old tape, when the tape was removed in 1994.

The writing has a reference to "600 H/P S3H1 C/N1055", which are identifiers to two engine parameters and one airframe parameter which are pointers to the wreckage they found being of the Lockheed Electra 10E owned by Earhart.

The full story is on my website: www.earhartsearchpng.com

My email is on the website if anyone wants to contact me personally.

Regards,

David Billings... formerly of Carlton, Nottingham.
