There are no facts to back this story up what so ever. This entire post is copied straight from an article by famed conspiracy therorist Mae Brussell. The article first appeared in Playgirl in December of 1974.
Maybe his death was hidden to keep the government from seizing any of his money and those who were in charge of his companies feared losing their power and money. They needed extra time to get the paperwork in order so that when his death was made public they were secure with his fortune. That would be more believable than The Onassis theory.
Besides, I think what is claimed to be his true demise is just as interesting as any conspiracy theories. Here is a man that grew up alone and while most boys his age were going off to college and losing their virginity Howard Hughes inherited just under a million dollars from his late father's business. He slowly built that fortune into over a billion dollars, slept with any woman he chose, help revolutionize commercial air travel and the military. Then he just disappears for almost 20 years until his death. Maybe that's exactly what happend.
You put yourself in his shoes. You are the richest man in America, you banged every hot piece of ass out there, you have no children, no responsibilty, all you have is your work, you are used to being alone because your dad worked all the time and you were an only child. Your mom was over protective of you so you didn't get to do anything when you were a kid. No fun stuff, no friends. You probably have minor brain damage from that near death plane crash you suffered. You get hooked on pain meds that you are taking medicine for your injuries. You have a mental illness that is developing more rapidly now because of the medicine. You can do what ever you want. So, you chose to junk out on codeine and other pain meds in your room all day. Except all day turns into 20 years.

I was into howard hughes a few years ago, wanting to know how he made his money and hopefully emulate it. But it was futile at best, considering his father gave his business to his son. And from that howard hughes made that money grow.

I remember seeing short footage of Hughes arriving in Vegas in '66, just getting off his plane, in a documentary about Vegas. Also didn't he end up buying all those hotels from Dalitz, Sinatra and the rest so if Onassis did get him it must have been after the mid 60's
