Flight 19 Still in the Ether!

A few times, the mysterious loss of Flight 19 has been heralded as solved. As narrated in countless books harping on the so-called Bermuda Triangle, Five Avenger planes in the USAF (and one follow-up plane searching for them) went missing in December 1945.

As a follower-after of spooky, oddball things, I was quick to clip some newspaper articles which mention such things.

This article's from the December 6, 1989 Tulsa World, forwarded to me by my dear mom, who knew my taste for weirdness.

On May 17, 1991, the Oklahoman reported another false find.  I mean, they found five Avengers at the bottom of the deep blue sea ... but they were some other five Avengers.  Yeah, right ... 

The next day, an OKC resident recounted his role in the search for Flight 19, back in the day.

This article from the Oklahoman of May 27, 1991 ruminated on how the discovery of the five planes was interesting, whether they were Flight 19 or not.

But they weren't, as this clipping from the June 5, 1991 Oklahoman narrates.

You may read the government's version of the tale here.  But Flight 19 flies on in the imagination, until pinned down by an actual discovery.

See you Friday, ladies and germs!
