Mystery may never be solved-always been an AE fan.

I wonder why they did not remove those bones, back in the day? Because, DNA, would surely shed some light, now. Thanks for posting that...I have kept up with previous theories.

With today's technology, the best they can come up with is probably?

I've far less curiosity over a publicity seeking daredevil than this: "Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 was en route to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur carrying 239 people on board.

They included Chinese calligraphers, a couple on their way home to their young sons after a long-delayed honeymoon and a construction worker who hadn't been home in a year.

The plane had recorded 7,525 take-offs and landings as well as 53,420 flight hours when it made its last journey.

The MH370 Boeing was seen for the last time on military radar at 2.14am, close to the south of Phuket island in the Strait of Malacca.

Before that, Malaysian authorities believe the last words heard from the plane, from either the pilot or co-pilot, was "Good night Malaysian three seven zero".

Half an hour later, the airline lost contact with the plane. It had been due to land at around 6.30am."

To clear up the picture, Jantz threw out Hoodless’s analysis in favor of his own method that compares Earhart’s physical dimensions to the measurements Hoodless took nearly 70 years ago.

Unfortunately, most people never get their bones measured while they’re alive, and for Earhart, the picture is even fuzzier, as her driver’s license and pilot’s license list her height differently. To get over this hurdle, Jeff Glickman of Photek used a photo of Earhart that also shows objects whose dimensions can be measured: an oil can. With estimates of Earhart’s lower arm length — including her tibia and humerus bones — Jantz was able to use U.S. military measurement data to extrapolate how long her tibia was.
Amelia Earhart crash theories plane

1. Howland Island, where Earhart was trying to reach. 2. Jaluit Atoll, around which a documentary claims she crashed. 3. Gardner Island (Nikumaroro), where TIGHAR and Jantz claim she crashed.

Jantz took these measurements and performed two separate comparisons. First, he compared them to 2,776 other known measurements of human bones in a forensic database, and then he compared the bones from Nikumaroro to the database. “The Nikumaroro bones are at least 84 times more likely to belong to Amelia Earhart than to a random individual who ended up on the island,” he writes.

If history is any indication, other forensic anthropologists will likely challenge these findings. Jantz has advised The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery, or TIGHAR, a group that previously touted the Nikumaroro hypothesis with non-peer-reviewed research. When that story came out, multiple forensic anthropologists questioned whether a photograph could ever be appropriate evidence. So as nice as it would be to put this mystery to rest, we’ll probably see similar criticisms arrive later this week.
