***Please give me a Star for this Question***

1)Is the Bermuda Triangle still active?
2)Why do airlines still fly over it in spite of a chance of the aircraft to "disappear" over it with all the passengers in it?
3) Were any of the major airlines (such as "British Airways" or "American Airlines") ever known to have "lost" an aicraft over the Triangle?
4) When was the last time when a manned ship/aircraft "disappeared" over the Triangle and how many souls perished?

Airlines and Ships go through it all the time, I have even flown over it. The reason they do is the whole thing is sort of a myth, the amount of planes and ships that have disappeared in it compared to the amount that travel through it safely is extremely small. However I watched a show on the whole thing and there could be strange magnetic fields, but nothing dramatic enough to waste money by having planes/ships go around it. This seems to be the last ship to sink in it-1999: Freighter Genesis Lost. The last plane looks like a Grumman Cougar Jet, lost on October 31, 1991.

The "Bermuda Triangle" is a myth, a story, a tall tale...like aliens in New Mexico and Elvis in London.....made up to sell books and newspapers.......the area that encompasses the Triangle is from Bermuda to Florida to Puerto Rico.......ALL air traffic from New York, Philly, Boston, Washington, Miami AND ALL air traffic going from Europe to the Caribbean or South America go right through it every day. Just in terms of flights going into Puerto Rico, that's 100 planes a day just to and from PR.......

In addition, ALL freighter ship traffic from Japan and China going through the Panama Canal to Europe, all ships going from China to the East Coast; all the tankers coming from the Mid East to America.....all those ships go thru there.....that's several thousand a year.

I've sailed small ( under 60 foot ) sailboats thru the Triangle 14 times in 30 years; each passage thru that area was 4 to 8 days.... and flown thru it at least that many.....the weather there isn't any worse than anywhere else in the world, and a lot better than most; there are no weird magnetic disturbances that I saw; so sorry, the Triangle is a myth

My question is since planes and or boats have not disappeared recently could the triangle over the last 15 years move to the Indian ocean where the Malaysian plane went down and is still missing
