Lost in the Pacific

The disappearance of Amelia Earhart during the first round-the-world flight in 1937 remains a mystery.Was she US spy,captured by the Japanese,or did she simply crash?Amelia Earhart was born on 24 July 1897 in Atchison,Kansas.As a child she was never really happy.But when she left home in 1920 and went to California,she learned to fly,which she loved.In October 1922,she flew to 14000 feet,establishing a new altitude record for women.In 1928 she became the first woman to fly across the Atlantic.Then in 1929 she set a new women's speed record of over 184 miles an hour.In 1931 she married George Putnam,a publisher.Two months after they had married,Amelia became the first person to fly across the USA coast-to-coast.
In 1932 Amelia flew the Atlantic solo,and in 1934 she became the first person to cross the Pacific on a solo flight,from Hawaii to the US mainland.When she arrived,a huge crowd,newsreel cameras and a cable from President Roosevelt had been waiting for several hours to greet her.She became a magazine correspondent,a lecturer and even a fashion model.She was a woman who had achieved success in a male-dominated world.
But throughout it all,Amelia's relationship with her family was distant and she rarely visited them.There were also rumours that her marriage with Putnam had become strained.
Fame had exhausted Amelia and she decided to retire.She wanted to attempt one more record flight,around the equator.
Her first attempt in March 1937 achieved a new trans-Pacific speed record,but ended when her plane crashed in Honolulu while it was taking off.
Financially,things were not good for the Putnams,because the world flight had cost them more money than they had been expecting.But two months later,she began her second attempt on the world-record flight.
Amelia and her co-pilot disappeared without trace on the morning of 2 July 1937 somewhere in the Pacific.The accepted version of the events is that they had been running low on fuel,and had crashed into the sea and drowned.But the US Navy had been receiving SOS messages from Amelia for four days after her disappearance.It appears that the Japanese military took them to Saipan,where several people said they had seen them between August and October.There was even speculation that Amelia became involved in broadcasting radio propaganda from Tokyo.Other evidence suggests that she survived the Pacific War and returned to America,under US government protection,to live out her life in privacy.Perhaps one day the true fate of Amelia Earhart will come to light.But until then,Amelia Earhart still remains one of the world's most famous missing persons.
