Unexplained mysteries happen all around us including above us that's the case of
pan-american flight 914 in 1955 this flight took off it was going from New
York to Miami Florida however the plane vanished in mysterious
circumstances then in 1992 37 years later it showed up again but what
happened next is even more puzzling I'm Charlie and today we're going to look at
how a plane disappeared and landed 37 years later but before we take off for a
long flight why not subscribe and press the notification bell - the story begins
on the 2nd of July 1955 it was a boom year in America and many people began
flying on commercial airliners well on that sunny summer's day many people
boarded pan-american flight 914 it was supposed to be going a short distance on
the east coast of the USA from New York to Miami Florida there were four crew
members including two flight attendants a pilot and a co-pilot and there were 57
passengers men women and children the plane took off and all was fine Bert
three hours later they were supposed to land in sunny Florida but at the airport
in Miami there was no sign of this plane the radars in the air traffic control
tower in the Miami Airport did not show the aircraft they thought maybe it's
just late for some reason but there was no sign of it on the radar whatsoever
at first they thought perhaps the plane had crashed but there were no distress
signals sent out after they phoned the New York air traffic control tower they
finally worked out what had happened somehow flight 914 had disappeared from
the radar altogether the large airplane which was a model DC 4 had simply
vanished the only thing people could think of was where the flight had gone
over the Atlantic Ocean just for about one hour they thought in that one hour
perhaps the plane had fallen into the ocean and crash so they sent out search
parties on sea and in the air but they found nothing
of course everyone in the situation was freaked out after all there were
sixty-one people on this airplane who may be in danger
unfortunately they could not crack the case of flight 914 and eventually they
put out a statement saying the plane had likely crashed but they weren't sure
where but all of the dismayed relatives of the 61 people were enraged they said
this response was not good enough and they had to find this plane and 37 years
later that's what happened nearly half a century later in 1992 it was a normal
day in Caracas Venezuela the day was the 9th of September 1992 an air traffic
controller at the airport in Caracas Venezuela named Juan de la corte was
doing his job but that's when something weird came up on his radar a new plane
seemed to appear out of nowhere on his radar Juan and his colleagues checked
other radars in the air-traffic control room in case it was a mistake
but it was not 10 minutes later the aircraft was in view of Juan and his
colleagues they soon realized this was no normal plane from 1992 instead it was
a twin propeller dc4 mcdonald-douglas these airplanes were not used anymore
and hadn't been used since the 60s the pilot of the aircraft then said in
English where are we Juan then said you're about to land at
Caracas Airport Venezuela the pilot then responded in a way that stunned born he
said this is Pan Am flight 914 heading from New York to Miami Florida we have a
crew of four and fifty-seven passengers at this point
Juan and his colleagues were so confused Caracas Venezuela is a totally different
country and thousands of miles away from Miami or New York Kwon said when is your
flight scheduled to land we don't see you on our schedule and that's when the
pilot said our flight is due to land at 9:55 a.m. on the 2nd of July 1955 when
this was said the entire air traffic control tower fell into an eerie silence
Juan de la corte thought perhaps the pilot had gone insane he said to the
pilot are you experiencing a disaster but there was no reply that's when Juan
realized number one priority was to try and land
this plane to make sure everyone was safe remember who I knew that there were
57 passengers and four crew members who may be in danger the plane landed and
ground crew was scrambled to try and see what was going on while then radio to
the pilot do you realize that today is the 9th of September 1992 the pilot then
could be heard heavily briefing and spluttered oh my gosh the ground crew
were now getting near the plane but that's when the pilot did something that
warned never expected the pilot could be heard shouting not to come anywhere near
the plane and that they believed it as the ground crew approached the plane
they saw the passengers looking out of the window the pilot then started the
plane's engine again and took off without saying another word
the Venezuelan civil aviation leaders then came together and confiscated all
records relating to this weird event they said they would investigate the
event further but nothing ever came of it since then many theories have come
together to try and make sense of what happened on that day
some blame paranormal activity and others blame time travel after the plane
had taken off it was never seen again on any radar or at any airports so why on
earth did this flight that was going from New York to Miami show up in
Caracas Venezuela and why was it missing for 37 years before it landed in
Venezuela only for it to take off again and then never be seen again this event
was first published in a newspaper named Weekly World News and since then it's
gone around the entire world as a bizarre story which no one can really
explain now the story often spreads free word-of-mouth and it's kind of become an
urban legend as no one's really sure what exactly happened on that day could
it have been a massive hallucination that happened at the Venezuelan airports
we may never know as obviously we can't contact the crew members or the
passengers of flight 914 but now it's time to make your voice heard what do
you think happened to flight 914 was it really lost in time for 37 years or is
there some kind of other explanation about this plane if you want some more
