Kindersley Readers - Level 3: Bermuda Triangle. Andrew Donkin. Dorling
Kindersley; ISBN: 0751362662 |
 |
This
is a collection of scary stories intended for Level 3 about the mysterious
vanishings of the wartime US naval planes - Flight 19 (The Lost Patrol)
and ships with an area of the ocean known as the Bermuda Triange. It is
one of a series which has been designed to aid the development of children's
reading skills.
In the area between
Florida, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico lies the most mysterious expanse of water
in the world: the Bermuda Triangle. Over the last 50 years, 1,500 people
have disappeared here without a trace, and many more have experienced bizarre
and inexplicable incidents. On 5 December 1945, five US Navy TBM Avengers
comprising Flight 19 rose into the sunny sky above NAS Fort Lauderdale,
Fla. Turning east the formation headed out over the Atlantic on the first
leg of a routine exercise from which neither the 14 men of Flight 19 nor
the 13-man crew of a PBM Mariner sent out to search for them were ever
to return.
