I watched a special on this last night. Searchers with advanced 21st century equipment now believe she had survived the crash. And had been surviving on a small remote pacific island. And she had been transmitting distress calls by short wave that had been received by novices as far away as the state of Maine. But no
action was ever taken up on the distress calls.

The scientist went out to that island to search for any clues to the 1937 disappearance. And they did find
some evidence that she might have been there, and died there.They found the bones of a woman matching
her weight, height, and dental records from a skull. The bone samples were sent to a forensics lab but so
far nothing conclusive.

Some aircraft aluminum was found but it couldnt be matched to her Lockheed Electra. The tides had already
drug the wreck off into a deep water abyss just yards off the island. There was a photograph taken by a
British ship, of an old ship wreak stranded up on the beach. In that photo it was discovered, and had been overlooked, of some landing gear sticking up out of the water. It matched what a Lockheed Electra would
have had.

I think she survived, her navigator didn't. Flying through some rough weather he had them 100 miles
off course. She lived out her last days there as a castaway.
