What happen to Amelia Earhart, Check this out


This week I been watching a documentary show on TV and one of the documentary show that interest me to share here with you is about Amelia Mary Earhart life. To me she is a brave girl that will also do the work of a man. Emelia was born on July 2,1937 and she was declared legally dead on January 5, 1939. She is a famous American aviation pioner and author. She was the first woman that receive the Distinguished Flying Cross. She was awarded for becoming the first aviatrix to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. She wrote best selling books about her flying experiences and was instrumental in the formation of The Ninety-Nines, an organization for female pilots.

Earhart is a daughter of Samuel Edwin and Amelia Amy. Earhart was named according to the family custom. After her two grandmothers named Amelia Josephine Harres and Mary Wells Patton. Earhart love adventure and a spirit of adventure seemed to abide in her. When she was a child she spent long hours playing with Pidge like climbing trees, hunting rats with a rifle and belly slamming her sled downhill. Emelia Earhart joined the faculty of the word famous Purdue University aviation department in 1935 as a visiting faculty member to counsel women on careers and help inspire others with her love for aviation. Earhart was also a member of the National Woman's Party and an early supporter of the Equal Rights Amendment. Based on the documentary show that I watched last few days, during Earhart attempt to make a circumnavigation flight of the glove in 1935 in a Purdue-funded Lockheed Model 10 Electra. Earhart disappeared over the central Pacific Ocean near Howland Island and declared was declared that she was legally dead on January 5, 1935. Even she was dead her fascination with her life, career and disappearance continues to this day.
