2022 Expedition Plans  Nungesser & Coli
FIRST: WATCH THE VIDEO
This eleven minute video will introduce you to Project Midnight Ghost and explain how TIGHAR is working with Newfoundland to find history’s most important missing airplane. You’ll find the video on the TIGHAR homepage at TIGHAR.org, on the Youtube TIGHAR Channel, and on the TIGHAR Channel on Vimeo.com.
 
WE HAVE TWO TIGHAR EXPEDITIONS PLANNED FOR 2022.
PMG XXXI — JUNE (exact dates not yet set)

A small TIGHAR team will make a one-day visit to the Gull Pond to collect drone imagery for the creation of a 3D map to be used in planning and management of the major search operation scheduled for September.

PMG XXXII — SEPTEMBER (exact dates not yet set)

Four days of operations at the Gull Pond will include physical inspection of targets identified in the September 2021 drone magnetometry survey plus visual and metal detector searches of the pond bottom.

The Gull Pond is wild and remote, but it’s not Nikumaroro. We stay at a good hotel in St. John’s (a beautiful city) and commute daily via a two-hour drive to an LZ where we meet the helicopter for a short ride to the pond. TIGHAR members who want to observe operations at the pond or be part of a small land-search team will pay their own travel and accommodation expenses plus a $500 contribution for each day they come to the pond.

You don’t need to decide now, but we do need to gauge the level of interest in member participation in the September expedition. Please use this link to register as a volunteer.

No donation required. No obligation implied.

In the meantime, we do need everyone’s help to cover the costs in preparing and carrying out these expeditions. Please contribute what you can to the 2022 Project Midnight Ghost Fund.
