The Mysterious Disappearance of Amelia Earhart Solved

By Mark Swarbrick

For Nearly Ninety Years, We've Been Told She Simply Ran Out of Fuel and Crashed into the Ocean.

That explanation ignores the fuel reserves she still had on board, the documented heading she was flying, and most importantly, the numerous radio calls received in the days that followed, indicating she was alive and transmitting from land somewhere in the Pacific.

A Pilot and Radio Operator Reexamines the Evidence

Author Mark Swarbrick, a pilot trained at the University of Illinois Institute of Aviation and a licensed HAM radio operator, brings technical clarity to one of aviation's greatest mysteries. Drawing on his knowledge of cross-country navigation, aircraft performance, and shortwave radio, he evaluates the disappearance as a real-world aviation problem rather than a legend.

When fuel endurance, navigation lines, radio capability, and post-loss transmissions are examined together, the simplistic "crashed and sank" narrative collapses. This book rejects that explanation, while also avoiding the speculative claims that Earhart was a U.S. spy or that she was captured by the Japanese.

This book explains where she landed, what happened to her, and the extensive body of evidence that supports that conclusion.
