Title: The AE Festival in Atchison KS (July 15 & 16)
Post by: Chris Johnson on May 21, 2011, 12:21:58 PM

I know its a short way off but is there going to be a transcript of the talk online after the event?

No. I narrate a powerpoint presentation but there's no script per se - I just ad lib - so making a transcript would be quite a job.  You wouldn't have the visual images I refer to anyway.

Ric,  I may have missed it along the way, but I presume the "Nessie" photo may be a part of the presentation. Anything further that can be released about what it might be?

I don't yet have Jeff Glickman's final report on his analysis of the Nessie photo (http://tighar.org/Projects/Earhart/Archives/Research/Bulletins/57_Bevingtonphoto/57_HidinginSight.htm) but I can tell you that nothing he has found so far negates the hypothesis that it is a landing gear leg form a Lockheed Electra.

There is a fly-in at the airport on Saturday morning. It is about 1+20 flying time from here in a C P210. If I make the flight I will look you up and get an autograph.  :)

Ric, will there be a video posted somewhere or your presentation?  That would be great to see and hear.  And if not, will the PPT be available?

The presentation will go for a couple hours - too long for a posted video - and the the PPT wouldn't mean much without the live narration.  I know that, these days, everyone expects everything to be available on line but sometimes a live event is a live event.

Of course, you could record just the audio, attach the Powerpoint, and say "beep" when we should advance to the next slide!   ;D

I know.  Just hoping.  I am one of very many who can not get to KS to see it live.
