Title: Photographic Presentation: Earhart Search
Post by: Matt Revington on March 04, 2016, 01:54:00 PM

I could not see that this presentation has been referenced before in the forum, not much new information but a nice set of images of the vessels involved in the search

Nitpicking:
The photo of Itasca is WWII vintage.  Different bow and more and bigger guns.
That's not the Itasca radio room.
The PBY shown is a PBY-5.  The PBY used in the Earhart search was a PBY-1.
The photo of USS Lexington is WWII vintage.
