Fawcett was an accomplished aviator with vast resources available to him. This sort of accident could have been faked. A super decathalon when trimmed properly will virtually fly itself for a long long way.
We will probably never know one way or the other. It is probably true he met his demise in the side of a mountain. Im just saying alot of the circumstances were peculiar.
The flight plan, the inability to find the wreckage in spite of intense searching, the outstanding coincidence that the 'papers' found were more or less 'exactly' what needed to be found for a positive ID. The lack of communication from Fawcett immediatly prior to the accident in spite of the 'state of the art' radio stack.
