Read previewA relative of Amelia Earhart agrees that a recent sonar image could show the iconic pilot's long-vanished aircraft. It sure looks like a plane," Kleppner told The Times of London. AdvertisementEarhart and Noonan likely disappeared about 100 miles from Howland Island, near the site of the sonar images. Romeo and his team hope to retrieve the Electra from a depth of 16,400 feet if it proves to be Earhart's plane. AdvertisementThere's no guarantee it's been found, expert saysA map of the location where Earhart's plane is believed to have gone missing along her presumed flight path.

Amelia Earhart is photographed with her Lockheed Model 10-E Electra, the aircraft she used in her attempted flight around the world. “While it is possible that this could be a plane and maybe even Amelia’s plane, it is too premature to say that definitively. In Earhart’s last communications, her radio transmissions progressively got stronger as she got closer to Howland Island, indicating that she was nearing the island before she disappeared, Cochrane said. For that reason, you can never say that something is (or isn’t) from a sonar image alone,” Jourdan said in an email. Confirming that the found anomaly is Earhart’s plane would require returning to the site to further investigate the plane, and more definitively, locating the certification “NR16020” that was printed on the underside of the missing Lockheed’s wing, Jourdan said.

Romeo and his company, Deep Sea Vision, discovered an object of similar size and shape to Amelia Earhart's iconic plane, deep in the Pacific Ocean. Advertisement"It's very deep water, and the area that she could've possibly been in is huge," Tom Dettweiler, a sonar expert, told The Journal.
