The complaints were about the fuselage construction and that is something not applicable to this case. <modsnip: Quoted post was removed>

This crash doesn't appear to be related to the fuselage of the aircraft. So I don't know why this would be posted.

I'm hearing speculation from pilots that the flaps were not correct t begin with. There is video of the plan rolling down the runway.

The landing gear is clearly down for sure. I can't tell about the flaps from the video I saw. It also looks to me like the plane is slow, like it can't enough speed to generate lift? Bird strike? I don't see any smoke or anything coming from either engine.

I'm actually just re-reading an Earhart book I have. It is very good. It is "Amelia Earhart: The Final Story."

I think you're right. I wonder if someone just found her or if the killer confessed and told them where to go. That someone is already in custody makes me think the later.

I agree. This is just such a lack of empathy and simple respect for others in some people.

Wow, just wow. 12 years old. I would assume there must be some other evidence other than just her statements for them to arrest him.

Murdered two people over youtube videos? Unbelievable!

So sad. I wonder if the sailor in custody is the same one she had been with earlier.

I don't think you should spend too much time trying to understand that. It isn't a "reason" so much as an "excuse."

Thank you, I'm perplexed why it is in the In the News and not "Rampage" section.

Certainly multiple agencies conduct their own investigations. But if this is a murder that occurred off base, jurisdiction lays with the county, not the Navy. When there are military bases in a community, there are usually memorandums of understanding regarding prosecution of military people...

Yes, but NCIS doesn't "turn over " the case to locals. It is the local's case to begin with. The body was found, NCIS was brought to see if it was related to their investigation. The case is in the jurisdiction of the county, not the Navy.
