Amelia Earhart disappeared over eight decades ago, but Charleston's own Tony Romeo believes he may have found her plane at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. Earhart disappeared with navigator Fred Noonan over the Pacific Ocean near Howland Island in 1937 during an attempt to circumnavigate the globe. Romeo is a pilot, comes from an aviation family, and has always been fascinated by Earhart's story. He left his commercial real estate career to embark on a more adventurous life, which led him on a mission to find Amelia and her plane.
