Did anyone else get a loud 60 cycle hum on the video/film?  A few years 
ago I saw another documentary about the Lady Be Good where they found 
most of the crew's bodies.  They also mentioned that the navigation log 
was blank and the navigation instruments were still put away as if they 
hadn't been used. The condition of the wreak was such that the crew 
could have easily survived and could have called for help on the HF 
radio.  As often the disaster was not caused by one problem but by a 
trail of mistakes.  A green crew suffered a terrible death.  God rest 
their souls.
