Credible Amelia Earhart Signals Were Ignored

In one missive, the U.S. Navy Radio in Honolulu heard a garbled Moorse code: "281 north Howland - call KHAQQ - beyond north -- won't hold with us much longer -- above water -- shut off."


- Signals from Amelia Earhart 's plane suggest that dozens of previously dismissed radio signals are credible.

- Earhart 's aircraft was likely on land and on its wheels for several days following the disappearance.

- Earhart would have used the aircraft's radio to make distress calls until the plane was washed over the reef in the South Pacific.


The transmissions started riding the air waves just hours after Earhart sent her last inflight message.
