Amelia Earhart’s Long-Lost Plane Discovered On Auxiliary Runway At LaGuardia
(www.theonion.com)
A place to share and discuss stories from The Onion, Clickhole, and other satire.
Great Satire Writing:
The aviation nerd in me wants everyone to know that's actually a picture of a completely different plane. I'm pretty sure that's a Douglas C-47 Skytrain.
(Sorry I don't have a funny comment to add.)
If someone wasn't in the comments saying this, or "that asphalt isn't the right type for La Guardia", or "based on the sky in the background, this is actually somewhere in the southern hemisphere", then I'd be on the wrong website.
It's also clearly CGI.
Thank you for this. It was really bugging the shit out of me. I can't help myself lol.
Me: "Wtf?! That's no Lockheed Electra Model 10! Hoax!"
Sometimes useful outweighs funny.
