What made Amelia Earhart a good leader?

Answer 1

That was her intent. She flew because she could and changed the world.

Once as she landed in a field, the crowd rushed toward her and she turned and faced the plane. Her copilot asked what she was doing and Earhart answered: "I'm putting on makeup." -- Always the girl.

Yet Amelia's Lockheed Electra was within 75 miles of her target Howland Island when her radio cut out.

US CGC Itasca Chief Radioman Leo Bellarts 30, was on watch that morning and said: "In the early morning, signals came in pretty good. I actually did go outside and stand right out the radio shack and thought I would hear a motor any second. Her voice was loud and clear; sounded frantic on her last transmission. Then it cut off."

The US then sent nine ships, 66 aircraft, and well over 3,000 sailors and airmen. They covered well over 250,000 sq. miles of open sea and every island within a 650 mile radius of Howland.

Amelia Earhart was an American heroine, a record-breaking aviatrix, and a celebrity world wide.
