Analysis Of Amelia Earhart's Life And Disappearance '

Lisa Shaw’s article Amelia Earhart's life and Disappearance, was great, Although, she spent little time informing about her early life. Noting only that Amelia Earhart was born on July 24, 1897. Amelia grew up with her sister grace and a love for adventure. As a child, Amelia explored their neighborhood and even built a roller coaster in her back yard with her uncle. This rollercoaster gave her that first taste of flight.
Shaw then spent a majority of the article explaining the steps Amelia took to become one of the few women pilots. In 1920 Amelia's father paid for her first real flight. Amelia spent 10 minutes in the air, where she decided she had to fly. She spent the next years doing odd jobs to raise the money to put towards flying lessons. These lessons made the world of deference. Amelia broke records as a women pilot, breaking the 14,000 feet altitude and becoming the 16th women to receive a pilot's license from the federation aeronautique
international. In 1928 Amelia excepted the opportunity of a lifetime to fly the Atlantic with Wilmer Stultz. In 1932 she took off from Newfoundland in attempt to replicate the past flight. Instead of landing on a farm due to weather problems. This failure didn’t discourage her.
Later in Earhart’s life, she set her sights on being the first female pilot to fly around the world. Shaw explains Amelia’s attempts at the journey. The first stayed grounded due to unresolved problems. The second flight on June 1st when without problems, Amelia and Noonan her chosen crew member flew 22,000 miles from Miami to New Guinea, where they stopped to recuperate. On July 2nd, 1936. They were spotted leaving New Guinea for their last 7,000-mile leg. Amelia and Noonan never made it to the island they were set to land on. The last radio contact with Amelia she claimed she was low on fuel and unsure of their location. The search for Amelia in the Atlantic continued until July 19th, 1937.
Amelia disappearance became the most speculated beyond the final report.
Lisa Shaw expressed that there are a few differing speculations about the nature of Amelia's disappearance. Most notably was the crash and sink theory, stating that she ran out of fuel and crashed into the Atlantic and the plane sank too far to be seen and rescued or recovered. The other theory known as the Earhart-in-the-Marianas theory states that she crashed into Saipan, an island in the western Pacific Ocean. Eyewitnesses tend to back this theory, but with little evidence, it is still just a theory. Shaw spend nearly a half a page describing the fabricated lie that the history channel aired. The history channel released fake evidence claiming a photograph from years before proved their disappearance, that Amelia did in fact land on Saipan island and become prisoners until death. This photo was debunked but the theory lived on. The eyewitness statements seemed to be historically accurate. Adding to the strangeness of her
disappearance.
