One can stretch their minds and ponder on the effect of this

course for a unknown reason and disappeared.
She dissappeared over the Perth Australia? I think if she looked out
the window, she would've figured out she wasn't lost at sea in the mid
Pacific. She could've probably hailed a cab using your navigational
skills.

She is believed to have gone down around 150 miles from Howland
Island in the Pacific, considering that is around 100 miles from the
equator I would say Art is pretty much on the money.
Bermuda (or even the Bermuda triangle) are both 3000 to 4000 kM from
the equator. The "other side of the earth" doesn't even come close to
Howland Island OR the Pacific!
How much money would you put down? Better yet, would you fly with Art
as navigator with his level of accurate map reading?

But it is midway between the pole's on the other side of the
globe, which is more to the point of Art"s observation than your nit
picking.
