The Strange Mystery of Santiago Flight 513 That ‘Disappeared’ In 1954 only to Land Again in 1989 with Skeletons on Board

For decades, the ‘supernatural’ believers have been puzzled by the supposed incident surrounding Santiago Flight 513 between 1954 and 1989, and no one knows what to think about it. The flight that took off in 1954 mysteriously vanished, off the radar, never to be seen again, until 1989. Fifteen years later, in 1989, the very same flight reappeared and even landed with all its crew. However, none of them was alive. They were all reduced to skeletons.

For those who are unfamiliar with the case of the unexplained disappearance of Santiago flight 513, here’s is a brief synopsis.

The passenger flight was on a set course from West Germany to Brazil

Santiago Airlines Flight 513 departed Aachen, West Germany, on 4th September 1954, and was due to arrive in Porto Alegre, Brazil, 18 hours later. It took flight as usual, and things seemed to be going according to schedule that was until it reached the Atlantic Ocean. Once above the Atlantic Ocean, the flight just disappeared without sending out as much as a distress call, signaling that it would crash soon.

But the plane never reached its destination

The plane simply vanished in mid-flight while flying over the Atlantic. Multiple search teams were deployed to locate the missing aircraft and rescue the passengers and crew members. Years passed following the plane’s disappearance, and the attempts to find the plane’s wreckage or the passengers’ bodies were unsuccessful.

The airlines finally shut down, and rescue operations were called off

After two years, Santiago Airlines closed down and stopped all operations in 1956, just two years after the claimed disappearance. The search was also called off after failing to locate even a single indication of a plane crash. None of the passengers or flight staff was ever rescued since they were nowhere to be found.
