A new examination in to the mysterious disappearance of two planes over the Bermuda Triangle in the 1940's has suggested that one aircraft crashed due to technical failures while the second would have run out of fuel.

"Two of the so-called Bermuda Triangle's most mysterious disappearances in the late 1940s may have been solved. Scores of ships and planes are said to have vanished without trace over the decades in a vast triangular area of ocean with imaginary points in Bermuda, Florida and Puerto Rico. "

A lot of speculation in that article.

When FIRST I read the title I thought , Ah, some old wreckage found or some thing. But the question mark makes it speculative not factual. I guess I watch to much CSI on T.V. but I expected some kind of physical evidence and not more "Arm chair" research.

I feel SO JADED!  :hmm:

Well, considering that the "Bermuda Triangle" was invented by a journalist on a slow news day, and the area it supposedly covers has never been exactly defined,(i.e. it any plane or boat that got lost anywhere in the North Atlantic was, according to the more excitable, swallowed up by it, it seems), I expect it'll hold onto its secrets a bit longer yet.

Life is a hideous business, and from the background behind what we know of it peer daemoniacal hints of truth which make it sometimes a thousandfold more hideous.

I've been listening to Tom Mangold's BBC radio 4 series on the Bermuda Triangle for the past week and it has been absolutely fascinating.  If you are in the UK, it can still be heard on the BBC iPlayer, but I don't think that actually works for people outside the UK, which is a shame.
