Emmy and Fred kicked in the auto pilot and played mile high club ... sumthin’ went wrong.
It would be interesting to find out exactly what happened to them. I think the odds are high that they crashed or crash landed in the open ocean.
It seems like there should be enough clues to locate approximately where they went down. I know the navy vessel which had been trying to communicate with them, said their radio transmission became very clear and loud not long before they ceased getting anything.
Almost certainly they went down close to where the ship was tho they never saw the plane.
Must admit though this is one of my favorite Joni Mitchell songs.

She is probably dead anyway....
Heck, they’re still looking for Judge Crater..
LOL! You owe me a keyboard - post o’ the day!
Maybe Amelia had Zero’s birth certificate on her plane, and that’s what they’re REALLY looking for!
Don’t understand your comment?
It’s pretty weak tea compared to the Armstrong Engineering Building.
Right you are.
This complaint is just more Bloombergian nanny-statism, trying to tell us which mysteries we should care about and which we should leave alone.
Pardon me while I pour myself a big gulp and clean my glock!
Scott Adams has an alternative explanation @ 37 seconds in:

The people trying to find it are after one thing; fame.

I doubt anyone is spending taxpayer dollars on that search. Ok with me! ;-)
No ... they’re cannibals! They ate her in the dining facility! : )
This isn’t going into the GGG list, because this op-ed is just a pathetic plea for attention by a fan of $500,000 cars.

Well, I know that Purdue has the Earhart papers, but I think if they were going to name a building (or dining “court”) after a famous aviatrix, they could have picked a few who were more successful in their endeavors. Could the papers have come with a Putnam $$ grant? Don’t know; maybe that was the influence...
(I’m an ERAU grad, BTW)
She was a prof @ Purdue and the university paid for her famous Lockheed Electra as a research project.
That’s most likely the reason.
What’s a Putnam grant?
Unless tax dollars are being used, I fail to see why so many losers care how many times or how long anyone spends looking for bigfoot; or Earhart.
