There was a great apocryphal story by Chuck Yeager and some gal flying into Russia with 2 compass devices and cameras.

When they returned to the plane, the Russians were trying to take it apart.

No doubt, Trump was there, helping the Russians. /OK this last line is for CNN’s next Breaking News

Wasn’t this event the creation of the phrase “epic fail”?

Actually, more than similar. The stamp has the ship by name, Koshu. What are the odds that the Marianas release a stamp claiming a particular ship recovered the airplane, then years later a spy photo comes up with the same ship towing an “Electra-like object”, and people resembling Earhart and Noonan are on the dock.

Whatever archive this photo came from should have a report from the person who took the shot. Release all the files!

They need to call in the expert who claims he can identify Marco Rubio by the back of his head.

This photo came from the Office of Naval intelligence.

All those people standing around you would think at least one of them would have been recording it.

Then again, if NOBODY knew who was who etc etc etc

Our naval intelligence seems to have been asleep through much of the 1930s. I don't think they had a clue to enlist Earhart to do anything.

No. Noonan kept telling her she was off course and she ignored him, this on her flight to Europe on “her” round the world flight. It was Noonan that tried to keep her straight.

This doesn't make much sense. She went down in 1937, four years before Japan went to war with the U.S. Why would the Japanese capture her and keep it a secret?

And if she is a prisoner, where are the guards?

Pretty sure she and Janeway knocked boots before they parted ways.

Their chemistry was off the charts.

This supports the theory that Earhardt was brainwashed by the Japanese and led the raid on Pearl Harbor.

Fact is: this picture matches up with the stamps that were issued in the 1980s about the capture & a lot of the eyewitness accounts. The plane that we see being towed is 38 feet long...same as the Earhart plane. I would not be so quick to discount this.

All the people on the dock are looking towards the grassy knoll where experts say the camera shots came from.
