Description
On dec. 5th. 1945, five USN bombers disappeared off the east coast of florida, in an area commonly known as the Bermuda Triangle. All 14 men were lost. A naval air ship with a crew of 13 was sent on a rescue mission, this too disappeared. No trace has ever been found of flight 19... The leader, Lieutenant Charles Taylor, was flying FT 28, the plane depicted here. I chose this one because my maiden name is Taylor and my birthday is the 28th. This is a close replication of the original TBF Avenger, that flew that training mission.

Having flown through the triangle several times, this is quite a reminder of the supernatural and sometimes explainable events that happen in that part of the Atlantic ocean. Nice. peace, O.

Wow, Sharon! Beautifully done! My thought is that those lost in the triangle passed through to another, parallel universe . . .

Seems so doesn't it Michael. They've never been found. Thanks for your thoughts my fiend.
