no she did not
lol she and her plane went missing mostr think she was shot down by japanese
1.She landed in a Japanese territory where they thought she was an intruder and hanged,stabbed,shot,and killed her 2.her and her navigator disappeared in the mysterious Bermuda triangle.
when her plan crash she landed in japans territory and trespassing .and all they heard was the navigator that navigated Amelia Earhart was beatened and shot at by the Japanese soldiers.ANS 2 - The answer above is a supposition by some extremely paranoid people. There is NO likelihood that any of that happened. The truth is, Amelia ran out of gas before she found her landing site at Howland Island. At no time was she anywhere near Japanese Territory.
During the attack on Pearl Harbor 29 of 360 Japanese planes were shot down. Only a few US planes made it in the air, so most Japanese planes were shot down by the sailors on the vessels in the harbor. The Japanese lost nine aircraft in the first attack wave and twenty in the second.
At Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, the United States shot down 29 Japanese planes during the attack.
Amelia Earhart was a real tomboy! She shot rats with a 22. rifle, belly slammed her sled in the snow to make it go down hill and she loved rollercoasters! She never wore the uniforms pilots had to wear. She wore whatever she wanted.
Amelia Earhart's death is uncertain. It is all unknown. People believe she might have either died lost at sea, shot at Japan, or was trapped in a prison to die of disease or bad condition in a cell at Japan.
In my opinion that is totally fallacious and madeup so a smart journalist could sell a book.
I believe she was shot down in retaliation for the hindenberg disaster in the U.S. Hitler was pissed about that and wanted personal revenge. Maybe she was taken prisoner or just shot down by a german fighter.
Approximately 29 Imperial Navy aircraft were shot down during the attack.
The Japanese didn't use Kamikaze at Pearl Harbor. That practice started in 1944. The Japanese lost 29 planes and 4 midget submarines on December 7th.
I've checked and rechecked my books on WW1 pilots and can find no Central power pilot who shot down 1 Japanese plane, let alone 40. Evidently during WW1 the Germans had only 1 airplane posted in Asia, so no pilot shot down 40 Japanese during the war.
