#ThisIsWhatAFemnistLookLike:Amelia Earhart

I've always been fascinated by the mechanics of flight. My autism makes flying on commercial airlines very challenging, but the mechanics of flying machines  hold my attention.

Today's " she-ro" is Amelia Earhart. Ms Earhart was the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean .

She valued independence & although married, referred to her relationship with George Putnam as " a partnership with dual controls".

n 1937 Ms Earhart disappeared . No proof of her death or survival of a crash has been found to this day, although many theories abound on the Internet & among flight enthusiasts.
