Aircraft recovery opportunity from Barnstormers...

So, that's what happened to Flight 19. What a navigational error!

There were 5.

I still believe Flight 19 crash landed in a Georgia swamp (Half of Georgia is a swamp...) because the lead pilot thought he was over the Bahama's (Or even Cuba...), so flies Northwest to get back to the keys (Where he thought he originally was) and hits Georgia. Don't forget, one of the local airports in Georgia and an aircraft carrier had a radar signature of 5 planes going Northwest. Of course i have no clue where they would be in the Okeethenokee swamp.... But thats just my hunch ;D

Maybe the 5th plane is still hidden a remote part of the lake.

Let me guess, you pay them and assume all the financial risk, then you get 25 percent of the proceeds. Oh, and by the way, since these are in a Canadian lake you don't get to keep them even if you do actually find them. And you know they are there because that guy's uncle talked to a guy who said he knew a guy that heard they landed in one of ten thousand Canadian lakes that was frozen over and sunk undamaged before they could be fueled up and flown out and the guy taking your money is sure that he has pinpointed the right one.

Two sides to every story. Little guy spends his money and time to find and then when he gets down to the real deal of getting a partner with money and reveals the location and it is verified. The rich guys get a lawyer and sue's the little guy to death until he wishes he had never heard the word airplane.

I hate to say it versatile, but you are right.

Too often the little guy spends years digging through archives, tracking down eyewitnesses, spending his own money and vacation traveling to prospective sites. Coming close to bankruptcy, only to hand the majority or all of it off to someone whose only contribution was money.

I use to work R & D for a major US Corporation. I really got tired of them paying me $7 for every patent I developed, or helped develop; while they made millions/billions off of my work.

I read an interview with a best selling Author once. He had a book published in 84, that has since gone through 15 printings; and he still had to keep his job at a GM Auto plant to put food on the table. His total royalties, he is said, for that book (after almost 30 years) are less than the annual salary of the Editor that accepted it for publication.
