Cheryl Miller and Pamella Jackson were last seen May 29, 1971, driving a 1960 Studebaker Lark on their way to a party. The attorney general, sheriffs from Union and Clay counties, and the Union County state's attorney scheduled a news conference Tuesday, April 15, 2014, in Elk Point where they plan plan to release test results and update the investigation into the 1971 disappearance of the two girls near Alcester.

ELK POINT, S.D. (AP) — Two South Dakota girls on their way to an end-of-school-year party at a gravel pit in May 1971 drove off a country road and into a creek where their remains lay hidden until last fall when a drought brought their car into view, authorities said Tuesday.

State and local officials held a news conference Tuesday afternoon confirming that the 1960 Studebaker unearthed in September included the remains of Cheryl Miller and Pamella Jackson, both 17-year-olds who attended Vermillion High School.

The investigators showed dozens of photographs of well-preserved clothing, Miller's purse and even her driver's license complete with a smiling photograph. Those personal items and DNA were used to identify the girls, said Attorney General Marty Jackley. Jackson didn't have her purse along.

Note:

Glad this mystery is finally solved, albeit a bit too late. This brings to mind many more mysteries of missing people, vehicles and planes from not only here but around the world. Imagine if everyone of us was a detective/PI/investigator btw, almost every mystery might be solved, but then again bad people could use that knowledge to cover up other mysteries, their own too.

Also:

Also sad to hear the father passed away only 5 days before his daughter was found, the wreckage was right under everyone's noses hiding in plain sight almost, I hope this teaches police, detectives, amateur searchers and SAR in general, plus others an important lesson. I hope these girls did not drown btw, but their is no telling if they did, and if someone possibly bumped them off the road like a drunk teenager. -Rob

Flight MH370 mechanical problems/fire/zombie plane theory?

Flight MH370 mechanical problems/fire/zombie plane theory?

"Caught fire. The pilots, thinking it was an electrical fire, turned off all electrical systems they could. (Worry about fire is one reason they CAN turn off everything, including the radios.) Then they turned west toward the nearest major airfield, to try to make an emergency landing.

Unable to put out the fire, they climbed to extreme altitude because the low oxygen content of thin air (there is as much oxygen, percentage-wise, but less air in total, so less oxygen) reduces the intensity of fire and would help put it out. The problem is that to do this they climbed higher than the plane was normally meant to fly, and when you get that high the air is so thin that the stall speed (the speed below which there isn't enough airflow over the wings to keep flying) starts to get dangerously close to your regular speed. So it's very easy to stall the airplane-- it stops flying and starts falling.

Any pilot is trained to recover from a simple stall. In fact all you have to do is put the nose down to gain speed, or in this case drop to a lower altitude where the air is thicker. The plane climbed to 45,000 feet then suddenly dropped to 25,000- looks like a stall and recovery to me.

It is possible they depressurized the airplane at high altitude to try to put out the fire, and then discovered their emergency oxygen masks didn't work. (Multiple failures at once are rare, but when a plane is lost it is often because of several things that went wrong at the worst possible time-- which is one reason such accidents are so rare.) If so everyone on board would probably be unconscious from this point on, and the plane just flying on automatic pilot.

"Personally, I think that is the most likely scenario. While 45,000 feet is above an airliner's usual cruising altitude, 25,000 is below it. I am just guessing here, but I would think an airliner that had stalled and was falling out of the sky from 45,000 should be able to recover before it had fallen that far. But if the pilots had set the autopilot just to keep the plane flying straight and level the autopilot, being dumb, might just keep trying to do that as the plane stays in its stall and keeps falling. This would continue until the mere thicker air at lower altitude allowed the plane to fly out of the stall on its own.

If the pilots weren't incapacitated when the plane went to its highest altitude, the plane stalled, forcing them to lower altitude again. There the fire flared up again, and the pilots were overcome by the smoke.

In any case the pilots were incapacitated, and the plane flew on from there on autopilot, going wherever it happened to be pointed.

It is likely everyone else on board was also incapacitated or dead by the time this happened. We can hope so because if not they were on the wrong side of a heavily armored security door designed to make it impossible for passengers to break into the cockpit-- and they were along for the ride to nowhere with nothing they could do.

Certainly anyone aboard would have tried to use their cell phone, but the range of a cell phone out to sea is three or four miles maybe, and they were hundreds of miles out." -Bill via Amazon Discussions

What do you think happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370?

Report: Ship detects "pulse" signal in search for jet airliner MH370 - CBS News

PERTH, Australia -- "A Chinese ship involved in the hunt for the missing Malaysian jetliner reported hearing a "pulse signal" Saturday in Indian Ocean waters with the same frequency emitted by the plane's data recorders.

China's official Xinhua News Agency said a black box detector deployed by the ship, Haixun 01, picked up a signal at 37.5 kilohertz (cycles per second). However, Xinhua said it had not yet been determined whether the signal was related to the missing plane, citing the China Maritime Search and Rescue Center.

Malaysia's civil aviation chief, Azharuddin Abdul Rahman, confirmed that the frequency emitted by Flight 370's black boxes was 37.5 kilohertz.

Retired Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston, Chief Coordinator of the Joint Agency Coordination Center -- the Australian government agency coordinating the search -- said Saturday the Haixun's report of electronic pulse signals could not be verified at this time. U.S. officials from the NTSB and FAA were not able to confirm the report, either.

Houston also said the report of a number of white objects on the water's surface about 90 kilometers from the signal detection area could not be confirmed to be related to the missing plane.

The deployment of Royal Australian Air Force assets to the area where the Chinese ship detected the sounds is being considered, Houston said."

Officials Say Missing Malaysia Airlines Plane 'Ended in the Southern Indian Ocean' -ABC News/yahoo

Very sad news to report:

New satellite data reveals that missing Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 "ended" its journey in a "remote location" of the southern Indian Ocean, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said today.

"This is a remote location, far from any possible landing sites. It is therefore with deep sadness and regret that I must inform you that, according to this new data, flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean," a somber Razak said during a media briefing.

The jet vanished March 8 with 289 people on board after it took off from Kuala Lampur bound for Beijing.

The announcement follows weeks of searches that spanned the South China Sea, Strait of Malacca and finally the south Indian Ocean off of Australia as authorities tried to figure out what happened to the plane.

Note: I had a dream over a week ago, regarding missing flight MH307. It was a dream with
3 skeletons on the edge of an island, the west coast of Australia it looked like. Maybe it meant
something? -Rob
