Amelia Earhart's plane, a Lockheed Electra 10E, was purchased for approximately $80,000 in 1936, which is equivalent to about $1.5 million today when adjusted for inflation.

The Lockheed Electra that she disappeared in was not very much different than today's small private planes. These days they carry an ELT which locates a plane after a crash, and often GPS which may have prevented them getting lost . -However neither of these devices existed in 1937.
There is no record of that, so I would doubt it very much.
Wiley's most celebrated aircraft was a Lockheed Vega 5, much like Amelia Earhart's 'Little red bus'
