we don't know whether it is all the hype creating more attention around this area or if it is a mere coincidence in over dramatized similarities.... or perhaps it is a true theory...

Yes it is true!
Countless theories attempting to explain the many disappearances have been offered throughout the history of the area. The most practical seem to be environmental and those citing human error. The majority of disappearances can be attributed to the area's unique environmental features.
It has been said that the "Devil's Triangle" is one of the two places on earth that a magnetic compass does point towards true north. Normally it points toward magnetic north. The difference between the two is known as compass variation. The amount of variation changes by as much as 20 degrees as one circumnavigates the earth. If this is the case and a compass variation or error is not compensated for, a navigator could find himself far off course and in deep trouble.

I’ve flown through it twice…and I don’t think that I have disappeared. I’m pretty sure that I wasn’t abducted by aliens. I know that I didn’t lose my sense of direction. I was pretty disappointed, to tell you the truth.
