DAVID ROLFE,
Sir, - With reference to Peter Scott's letter of June 4th, it is most unlikely that Amelia Earheart was captured by the Japanese on her final flight as she didn't have enough fuel on board to reach any territory controlled by Japan.
The Saipan theory was first proposed in the 1943 propaganda film Flight To Freedom and has since developed a momentum all of its own. - Yours, etc.,
