jharris Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Hello. Just to say that we have just finished a new work on the Hess flight, focussing on the plane, the navigational systems available to Hess and the flight outcome. By adopting this approach we have discovered that whilst meticulously planned using the then latest ELEKTRA navigation system, the execution was flawed, leading to an unintended parachute jump. This was simply because it was too dark to land conventionally. We analyse the planes capabilities and the operating systems and conclude that it certainly wasn't a solo flight as explained at the time. If you are interested please see the Amazon.com page - there are some good reviews. Slowly the truth is emerging.......

Gnarly Gnu Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Welcome jharris, interesting ideas. And MH370...? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Koreelah Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Fascinating mystery; why that prisoner was kept in Spandau Prison for life, when far worse Nazis walked free. What were the authorities trying to conceal? Does the 30-year rule not apply to these secrets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jharris Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 Morning both Gnarly gnu. No idea as to mh370, but the hess flight is certainly becoming clearer, albeit 73 years on. No 30 year rule re.security services, hence the mystery. Hess was controlled from 10/5/41 to 19/8/87. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
