Michael Ashmore Continues Investigation
New information has been unearthed concerning the mystery surrounding Amelia Earhart’s crash site, thanks to analyzing a 1938 photograph.
Michael Ashmore, of RoadtoAmelia.org, released this statement describing the photograph in question during the second week of September: “The body of this December 1938 photograph shows possible remains of an impact scar, starting at the beach and running approximately 20-40 yards into the vegetation. Suggesting Amelia's angle of approach during ditching and ultimately leads the way to a debris field of previously unseen wreckage within the photo. The debris is seen as shapes piled up in a heap and being semi camouflaged under a canopy of trees and shrubs. Having either a missing or caved in nose door and would account for the shadow so prominent in the Taraia Object image. Also visible is the appearance of more buckled metal forward of the cockpit as if caused by a sudden stop. Having sustained ample damage, though unknown to what degree. Speculating more clues are hidden under vegetation in this debris field and may show telltale signs of the last moments of her Electra's flight. Adding
yet another piece in this puzzle as our theory evolves. And by using this new information, we can adapt a better understanding of the severity endured by the aviators and planes' airframe during impact.”
In early 2021, the group released a satellite image showing an object located in the Taraia spit area, which shows resemblance and consistent to the forward section of the fuselage/cockpit found in the 1938 photograph.
A video is available to view in the video vault section of roadtoamelia.org, under a Photograph’s Anatomy that analyzes the possibilities of both images being the same.
