| NOTES: |
Amelia Earhart was the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic, and North American continent alone. Earhart tirelessly traveled and lectured a champion of aviation and equal opportunity for women. But her cheering public didn't know the cost of her courage. The record-breaking flight, the aerial exhibitions and races, and endless speeches and promotional commitments, together with household responsibilities, health problems, and financial worries, combined to push Earhart to the point of exhaustion. In 1937, while attempting to circle the earth along the equator on an east-west flight, her plane disappeared without a trace, transforming the " First Lady of the Air" into an American legend. |
