they felt bad as they were not the most civelized richest people in the world
Many people would love to meet Amelia Earhart. Why? Well, she was the first women to ever fly around the Atlantic Ocean solo. Sadly she went missing and they haven't been able to find her remains. As i said, many people would love to meet her and ask her questions. They might include: Were you a spy for the US military? How far did you get? What went wrong and caused you to die or go missing? Unfortunately, even if Earhart didn't die and she just went to some remote island, she would be dead today. I guess maybe in heaven those questions will be answered.
Her name was not Linda. Lady Lindy was a pun on Charles Lindbergh- the aviator of Spirit of St. Louis fame. She was a lady- and a famous pilot- so the two terms were coupled. No direct connection with the Lindy Hop - a type of dance. (but that was also named in(honor) of the airman!
The Peale Family. Don't feel bad. It took me a while to find it, too.
No Are you freaking kidding me??? I've never heard anything about the hermaphrodite thing, but she's a lesbian icon. Her marriage was an open one of convenience. There were precious few women who were openly lesbian during her lifetime. She was married to a much older man who was more like a father than a husband. She herself wrote a marriage contract in the form of a letter to her husband and said that before she could marry him she needed to remind him that she was reluctant to marry at all, and if they did it would be with the understanding that neither of them would be bound to what she referred to as a "medieval" vow of fidelity. If either of them were to meet someone else, he/she should feel free to pursue it and then decide whether to stay married. At the very least, she was a highly unconventional woman and fiercely feminist for her time.
One of the things I feel she would have liked to see was the role given female pilots in WW2. - The governments (of US, Britain and Canada) could have ignored them, but opened up thousands of jobs for experienced female fliers as delivery and communications pilots. Most people still don't know it, but throughout WW2 almost all of the Allies large bombers and many of the fighters were delivered from their building plants to the squadrons by female pilots. This often entailed long dangerous flights in unarmed aircraft over the Atlantic to Britain and Africa. I know of this principally as my Dad worked at an RAF Bomber Maintenance Unit in Libya in 1941-43. The American women fliers delivered bombers to his unit to have desert air filters installed and he told me how stunned they were when a Boston or Marauder arrived direct from the US and women pilots emerged ! - Amelia would have loved that. - well, maybe not -she would have wanted to be a fighter pilot - -
Some people thought Amelia Earhart was a role model but others didn't.
she felt exhilirated
Amelia felt very strongly about women's rights and their ability to do the same jobs as men.
Yes, it was the best times of her life.
I would assume that it was because she liked the challenge and it made her feel free. Most pilots feel that way.
flying is the corrrect spelling not "fling" which is fling as in having an affair!!
I feel that Amelia Earhart did have a very interesting life. I am sure she was happy about it too. She was probably very proud of all the things she had accomplished and should be. Her extraordinary accomplishments inspired the world (especially women).
she showed people that you can do anything if yoiu really want to and thats makes women now feel like they can look up to her for inspiration to make them believe in themselves that they can do anything
I'm sure many people felt very sad because here was a genuine female heroine who had tried and won the almost impossible so many times. Finally she couldn't complete this incredible flight.
of course
She had the guts to ask her parents about flying because she lied to them and told them she was always with her friends or lying even more because she didn't feel like that her parents trusted her, so she didn't trust them back.
