Far off course, but then they are not going to Alaska to find Amelia's plane, they are simply looking for parts.

On Nikumaroro Island in the Pacific, the historic aviation recovery group found dados -- pieces of metal used to protect wiring in the passenger compartment -- but were unable to confirm the type of plane they came from. {Amelias plane?}

The group needed to compare the parts they found with original dados from a Lockheed Electra {the Alaska plane} to see if the wreckage could be from Earhart's plane.
