Fred Noonan, her navigator
in the pacific ocean
She was the first woman pilot to ever try and travel around the world. Earhart went down somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean. Probably in the Bermuda Triangle.
Amelia Earhart represented the freedom and liberation that were at the center of Women's Rights. She made her own destiny and flew her own plane (which was not a very womanly thing to do at the time).
For some years, she had a mailing address at Rye, NY. site of a still-extant Amusement Park , Rye Playland.

Pancho Barnes took the speed record from Amelia Earhart on September 4, 1930 by averaging 196.19 miles per hour in her Travel Air Mystery 'S' airplane, flying a measured 1 mile course three times. The fastest time Pancho clocked on that day was 197.26 mph. The prior record, held by Amelia Earhart was 184.6 mph.
Two famous aviators from the 1920s were Charles Lindbergh and Amelia Earhart. Charles Lindbergh gained international fame in 1927 for completing the first solo nonstop transatlantic flight from New York to Paris. Amelia Earhart, known for her pioneering spirit, became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean in 1932, furthering her legacy as a prominent figure in aviation history. Both played significant roles in popularizing air travel during that era.
Amelia Earhart flew several planes during her aviation career, including the Kinner Airster, the Lockheed Vega 5B, and the Lockheed Electra 10E. Her most famous aircraft was the Lockheed Electra, which she piloted during her ill-fated around-the-world flight in 1937. Other notable planes include the Avro Avian and the Travel Air 6000. Each aircraft played a significant role in her pioneering contributions to aviation.

In 1937, as Earhart neared her 40th birthday, she was ready for a monumental, and final, challenge. She wanted to be the first woman to fly around the world. Despite a botched attempt in March that severely damaged her plane, a determined Earhart had the twin engine Lockheed Electra rebuilt. In her Last Flight, her plane was the specially modified Lockheed Electra 10-E
