What Happened to Flight 19?: The Mystery That Leaves Many Questions, Few Answers
Flight 19 is a flight disappearance that leads to many questions, but very few answers. First off, there are three main theories surrounding the disappearance of Flight 19. Also, there are 3 possible causes to the disappearance of Flight 19. Last but not least, there are 2 main people and groups of people that are responsible for the disappearance of Flight 19.
There are three main theories surrounding the disappearance of Flight 19. One of the main theories is that they got abducted by aliens in the Bermuda Triangle. On an article on Express.co.uk, it says: “While Christopher Columbus was on the brink of discovering the Americas in 1492, he allegedly saw a UFO in the waters of Bermuda.” Surprisingly enough, the Bermuda Triangle was the area in which Flight 19 disappeared.
Another main theory surrounding Flight 19 is a possible plane crash. On an article on SunSentinel.com, it says: “I think they all ran out of fuel and crashed.” Also, in the recovered plane transmissions, it says: “All planes close up tight. We’ll have to ditch unless landfall….when the first plane drops below ten gallons, we all go down together.” This gives the reasoning that when they ran low in gas, they all dove and crashed in the water.
Theory number three is that the planes didn’t know where they were and landed in the wrong place. Because the landscape might have been surprisingly similar to the places they were supposed to arrive at. On the website, Mysterious Universe.com in an article called Bizarre Transmissions from Mysteriously Vanished Planes, it says: “Both my compasses are out and I’m trying to find Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. I’m overland, but it’s broken. I’m sure that I’m in the Keys, but I. Don’t know how far down.’” “This was strange to say the least, as the group had just successfully fulfilled the first half of their mission near the Bahamas and Gould have been nowhere near the Florida Keys at that point in time.”
There are 3 possible causes to Flight 19’s disappearance. One possible cause of Flight 19’s disappearance is the captain’s stubbornness during the flight. Because in the article, Bizarre Last Transmissions from Mysteriously Vanished Planes on Mysteriously Universe.org, it says: “Some of the other pilots in the group protested the move saying they should fly west, but the order had been given and off they went.” This clearly shows how many people didn’t support the captain’s idea to go northeast.
Another possible cause to Flight 19’s disappearance is the lack of working technology during the flight. Because in the article, Bizarre Last Transmissions from Mysteriously Vanished Planes on MysteriousUniverse.org, it says: “Both my compasses are out and I’m trying to find Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. I’m over land, but it’s broken. I’m sure I’m in the Keys, but I don’t know how far down.” This indicates that he didn’t have the technology needed to figure out where to go or where they were exactly.
Cause number three of the Flight 19’s disappearance is the possible loss of fuel resulting in a plane crash In the article called Five U.S Navy Planes Vanished over the Bermuda Triangle——-And Were Never Heard From Again on the website AllThatisInteresting.com, it says: “We’ll have to ditch unless….landfall when the first plane drops below ten gallons, we all go down together.” That quote indicates the possibility that when they hit 10 gallons, they all crashed into the water.
There are two main people that are possibly responsible for the disappearance. One of the people responsible for the disappearance was Lieutenant Charles Taylor. Taylor made calls during the mission which determined their fate. In an article called Mysterious Disappearance of Flight 19 on HistoryChannel.com, it says: “….he made a fateful decision to steer Flight 19 northeast..” This fateful decision led to the deadly disappearance of Flight 19.
The Flight Tower is another group that is partially responsible for the disappearance of Flight 19. Flight Tower was communicating with Flight 19 during the duration of the flight. However, they never asked specifically on where they were which would help them to find them. In fact the most communication/dialogue made was made from the Flight 19 crew, not the Flight Tower. If the Flight Tower would have asked more questions, they would be more successful in possibly locating them.
In conclusion, there are three main theories in the disappearance of Flight 19. First off, there are three main theories on how Flight 19 disappeared. Also, there are 3 possible causes of the flight’s disappearance. Last but to least, there are two main people/ groups of people responsible for the disappearance of Flight 19.
