There seems there is not much more or much left to investigate.

The saddest thing is that if the crew went South instead of North they would have had better chances of survival. They would eventually have found the plane which had water and food supplies even the radio was still operational when the plane was found 17 years after the crash.

That said, they had no way of knowing that their base was so far North that it was beyond their reach.

By the way. Any thoughts on flight 19?
