The team investigating Gardner Island, now called Nikumaroro, suspects that the aviator veered hundreds of miles from her course, which was originally to Howland Island
A search party is looking to solve a lost aircraft mystery that has baffled the world since long before crews were searching the Indian Ocean for MH370.
The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery, called TIGHAR, is now embarking on a trip to the uninhabited island where aviator Amelia Earhart is thought to have made an emergency landing, with hopes of finding her plane.
Earhart, travelling with her navigator Fred Noonan, was attempting to fly around the world when she disappeared on one of the last legs, from Papua New Guinea to Howland Island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, in July 1937.
