"New Discovery: The Search for Amelia Earhart's Lost Plane"

TL;DR Summary
A private pilot's sonar image has reignited interest in the disappearance of Amelia Earhart's plane in 1937, with a South Carolina-based sea exploration company, Deep Sea Vision, potentially capturing an outline of her Lockheed 10-E Electra at a depth of 16,000 feet. The next step is to visually confirm the object, but debates arise about its proper handling if found. The potential discovery could shed light on Earhart's fate and aviation history, but questions remain about the legal and preservation aspects of raising the plane from the ocean floor.
