#妇女历史月#-飞行员和探险家:阿米莉亚·埃尔哈特(Amelia Earhart)。


1932年,阿米莉亚·埃尔哈特创造了第一位女性飞行员独自驾机飞越大西洋的历史。她主张发展商业航空并推动更多的妇女加入航空业。


1937年6月,她立志要环绕世界飞行,并驾机飞离迈阿密开始她的探索,但飞机于7月在国际日期变更线附近消失踪影。


她失踪的事实仍然不得而知。在此照片中,她在这架机身尚未完工的飞机中拍照留念。


#Women’sHistoryMonth# - Pilot & Explorer: Amelia Earhart


Amelia Earhart made history as the first woman pilot to fly solo over the Atlantic Ocean in 1932. She was an advocate for the development of commercial aviation and pushed for more women in aviation. In June 1937, determined to fly around the world, Earhart began her quest by piloting her aircraft out of Miami, but by July her plane had disappeared near the international date line. The facts of her disappearance remain unknown. She is shown here with the unfinished fuselage of that plane.
