And there area a TON of undocumented wrecks out there.
Flight 19 is a pretty well known 'lost' wing, right? And awhile ago some folks were dead certain they found a couple of the missing Avengers on the sea floor. They get out there and confirm they found Avengers.
Turns out it was an undocumented training crash of a couple Avengers. They found the ID numbers on the tail, I believe, tracked them to a couple of unaccounted for aircraft losses and realized it wasn't Flight 19.
Now a plane with the Electra's tail going down around where EA was supposed to have landed is a different creature than an Avenger going down off the coast of Florida. But I'd hesitate to say "well there were no other crashes out here..."
The odds are there were several. Planes went down a lot back then and the records just weren't great.
