conspiracy theories as the

Kennedy Assassination.
• The world's most famous female aviator disappeared in
1937, as she attempted to become the first woman to fly
around the world. With her navigator, Fred Noonan, her
Lockheed Electra was last heard from about 100 miles from
the tiny Pacific atoll, Howland Island, on July 2, 1937.
President Roosevelt authorized an immediate search; no trace

5. Childhood
• Amelia Earhart was born on July 24, 1897 in Kansas, the
daughter of Edwin and Amy Earhart.
• At the age of three, she was sent to live with her
grandmother (her namesake), mainly because the old
woman needed company and a distraction from the
deaths of her mother, her son, and her daughter-in-law, as
well as the poor mental condition of her husband Alfred.
• She liked their home in Atchison, Kansas, especially her
large bedroom with views of the nearby river, now a
museum open to the public.

7. Flying
On December 28, 1920, Earhart and her
father visited an airfield where Frank
Hawks brought her for a spin in his
small light aircraft that would
forever change Earhart's life.
‘’By the time I had got two or three
hundred feet off the ground,’’ she
said, "I knew I had to fly." After that
she immediately became determined

8. ♥Marriage
For a while Earhart
was engaged to
Samuel Chapman, a
chemical engineer,
breaking off her
engagement on
November 23, 1928.
After her engagement
Earhart and Putnam
had spent a great deal
of time together

9. Plans
Early in 1936, Earhart
started to plan a round-the-
world flight. On St. Patrick's
Day, March 17, 1937,
Earhart and her crew flew
the first leg from Oakland,
California to Honolulu,
Hawaii. The flight resumed
three days later from Luke
Field with Earhart, Noonan
and Manning and during the
takeoff run, Earhart made a
mistake. This time flying
west to east, the second
attempt began with an

10. On July 2, 1937 (midnight
GMT) Earhart and Noonan took
off from Lae in the heavily
loaded Electra. Their intended
destination was Howland Island
Through a series of
misunderstandings or errors the
final approach to Howland
Island using radio navigation
was not successful.
Fred Noonan was Earhart's only
crew member for the second
flight. They departed Miami on
June 1 and after numerous stops
in South America, Africa, the
Indian subcontinent and Southeast
Asia, arrived at Lae, New Guinea
on June 29, 1937. At this stage
about 35,000 km of the journey
had been completed. The remaining
11,000 km would all be over the
Pacific.

11. Her Last Flight
• In 1937 Amelia Earhart attempted an around-the-world
flight. Flying a custom-built Lockheed Model 10E Electra,
equipped with extra-large gas tanks, she would follow a
'close to the Equator' route, thus going one better than
Wiley Post's northern, mid-latitude route. In her first effort,
in March of 1937, she flew west, but a crash in Hawaii
abruptly ended that trip.

12. On July 2, 1937 (aged 39) Amelia Earhart
disappeared also along with Fred Noonan
Pacific Ocean, en route to Howland Island
At 7:42 am Earhart radioed "We must be on
you, but cannot see you—but gas is running
low. Have been unable to reach you by radio.
We are flying at 1,000 feet."
