Amelia Earhart Conspiracy

Introduction

Amelia Earhart was one of the most celebrated women aviators, breaking about fifteen different flying records. On June 1,1937 Earhart and Fred Noona, her navigator, began their round the world flight. If completed she would be the second person to finish this flight and the first women to ever accomplish the trip. On July 1,1937, with only 7,000 miles left on their trip, Earhart and Noona took off from Lae, New Guinea and flew 2,556 miles to Howland Island, but they would never reach their destination.

The font is small and different tabs seem to rotate different colors. The homepage provides a menu bar on the left side of the page. When clicking through the links, they lead to another page that just provides more link. Also, some links were dead . There were also few visuals on the pages. It was hard to navigate back to the Amelia Earhart page, since there was no straight link to the page and no search bar. Once, linked to Earhart's page the color scheme was different again and all the information was not broken down or reader friendly. The flow of the article was hard to understand, due to the writer not using any of the women's names. Compared to the TIGHAR site, it lacks organization, and consistence.

Recommendations

Although the TIGHAR website would be the best site for academic research paper, some of visual graphics could use some work making them look less childish. Also, it would help if the site shared more information about who the writers are and when the page was last updated. The website would also benefit from some more detailed maps. Going through the information readers like to know where the events are taking place at. Visuals are what keep the readers interested in the information.

The CNMI site would not be the best site to use for a research paper on Amelia Earhart. The site needs to fix the links, pick a color scheme and keep it throughout the site. Along with breaking up the articles and applying more

    Amelia Earhart had the courage and independence to do anything she set her mind to. She is well known around the world for her many aeronautical accomplishments. Her bravery and tenacity are legendary. Her attempt to fly around the world is regarded as one of the greatest mysteries in aviation history. Her flight around the world is legendary because of her unexpected and still undetermined disappearance. Amelia broke the stereo type boundaries and let the world know that she wasn’t afraid to be the best female aviator of her time. Her unexpected last flight was her attempt to fly around the world in 1937. Along the journey, Amelia and her partner Fred Noonan made sure to stop to have the Electra checked, refueled, and to tell everyone that they were safe (Candace Fleming 102). On July 2, Amelia and her partner left Lae, New Guinea, and the Electra apparently had 1,000 gallons of fuel. At 8:00 GMT, Amelia made her last radio contact with Lae (Pop Culture Universe). They had short communications with the Itasca, which received the last transmission saying that gas was low. There are many conspiracies to how she disappeared, but the most popular are that she landed on Gardner Island, crashed into the sea, or fell victim to the Japanese during the time of war.…

    Amelia Earhart is a very known person in the world of woman’s reconization and aviators, but how much do we really know about her? Well, to start with she was born on July 24th, in 1897 in Atchison Kansas. Her father, whose name was Edwin Earhart, was a very wealthy man from being a retired U.S district court judge. But he did have an alcoholic problem and during those times Amelia’s mother would send her and her sister, Muriel, to live with their grandparents for most of the year, except for the summer when Amelia would go and visit her parents. At her grandparents’ house, they had a blast living an “unproper life for young girls” seeking adventures, exploring the neighborhood, climbing trees, hunting for rats, and enjoying breathtaking rides on Amelia's sled.…

    Before she was a pilot she volunteered as a nurse for the Red Cross. During her time as a nurse she worked with wounded pilots and developed a strong admiration for pilots. It was not until after Amelia’s first time in an airplane that she knew she wanted to learn how to fly. In 1921 she bought her first plane second hand and later in October she flew the plane to 14,000 feet, which was the record at the time for female pilots. On May 15, 1923 Amelia was issued her pilots license and became the 16th women to ever obtain their license. On June 1, 1928, Amelia flew from Newfoundland to Wales as a passenger. Pilot Wilmer Stultz flew the plane with co-pilot Louis Gordon. Due to the popularity, Amelia became a star with book deals and product endorsements, she even became an icon for women’s fashion. Amelia’s book 20 Hrs. 40 Min documents her trip across the Atlantic, which was published in1928. Amelia was the first women to fly solo across the Atlantic on May 20,1932. Her plan was to fly from Newfoundland to Paris, but she did not make it and ended up landing in Northern Ireland. In 1931 she broke another world record of flying at 18,415 feet in altitude. Later Amelia became the first president of the Ninety-Nines, an organization for female pilots. On March 17, 1937, Amelia took off on the first leg of her trip around the equator.

    At the young age of ten, Amelia Earhart attended the state fair, where she had the chance to gaze upon her first airplane at the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines. Without a second thought, she dismissed the aircraft and resumed playing. She is attributed with this verbal reaction after seeing the biplane, "It was a thing of rusty wire and wood and looked not at all interesting," mentioned in Mary Lovell’s The Sound of Flight. It wasn’t until Amelia had attended a stunt flying exhibition nearly a decade later in Long Beach that she would seriously become interested in flight. On December 28, 1920, pilot Frank Hawks gave her a ride that would forever change her life.…
