Fascinating to hear her voice...
okrajoe I agree, mystifying
you prolly dont give a shit but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an instagram account?
I somehow forgot my login password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me!
@Ulises Ricky Instablaster ;)
This is wonderful having history preserved this way.
I always found this woman very becoming. What an amazing life. It is endearing to finally hear her voice.
She had a beautiful smile
Yes, she is very beautiful.
Lovely smile skin and hair Glad we have this historic record rip to both her and Fred Noonan
Jesus is coming back. Believe He died for your sins and admit your a sinner then repent to be saved. God Bless you!
@IamaproudChristian22 Amelia is in Heaven! 😊
She was pale, ginger and had gappy teeth, wtf are you on about ? 🤣
She was stunning!
she was very pretty
I think so too!
Lovely voice
She was 35 here.
Jeez, what a haunting thing to say; given that we know how it turned out.
Jesus is coming back. Believe He died for your sins and rose again then repent to be saved.
What a load of garbage!@@IamaproudChristian22
This is good
Why don't they name the airport in Derry after her?
She is adorable! 😊
She looks like a man, with some sort of deficiency. Wtf are you on about? 😂
Well, you know, everyone has their own opinions.
Oops, I saw another comment that I thought was yours for some reason. Well I personally think she looks very feminine, but like I said, everyone has their own opinions. BTW, my father would agree with you. . . . 😂
At the beginning I thought I was watching a woman with huge moose horns
Suprachiasmatic Nucleus fuck you.
@@TrekJohnDoe Rage much?
I wonder if this transatlantic accent she is using is really how she talked?
No, if you find other clips of her talking her natural speaking voice is much more relaxed. I think she was told to use the accent and read off of cue cards for this interview, which is why she comes off a bit stiff.
Sounds like she is reading off a script badly like actors in awful tv shows in the 2000s
TheConorsmithusa bull.
i know right like c'mon
She was born in 1800's.. videos are crazy to her at the time.
It's Michael Cera's mom.
What if she were really eaten by coconut crabs?
why does she not look at him when she talks? Why is she reading her answers if she really lived through it?
She’s coy and smug. Reminds me of the Beatles when first visiting America
Most books say AVERAGE pilot. You combine that with drunken navigators, not good!
It's all fun and games until Millie forgets to bring some Pokeballs for her trip.
Charles Lindbergh in drag?
lol
Fraud.
women and map navigation go badly together.......🤭
stop it lol
Its sad. For all of her fame, Amelia was actually a mediocre pilot at best. That husband of hers saw her as a meal ticket and milked her for everything she was worth. The Atlantic crossing was sheer dumb luck. Her round the world flight was a last ditch and desperate measure to keep her name in the papers. The Electra had already proven itself. Nothing about that "last flight" was historical in nature. All of the records to be broken had already been broken. The "last flight" was purely a publicity stunt. She spent more time and energy promoting it than preparing for it....so much more that members of the support team preparing for it quit. The crash at Luke Field was proof...she only did one shakedown flight before taking off on her first attempt around the world. Trashed what would be the equivalent of a million dollars in today's money, requiring an additional grant from Purdue for repairs. She didn't even learn to use her radios, despite the fact that it was the radios that were to help her find Howland. She gambled over and over again. Her luck ran out. interesting how she says she would feel more responsible if she had someone with her. She did...the best navigator in the United States. Its heavily documented that she largely ignored him, even to the point where she landed in the wrong country after he told her to turn left and she went right. Sadly, she was a much better celebrity than a pilot and her ego was far bigger than her skill. A lot of people lost their shirts on that flight and Noonans wife was left a widow.
Earhart was a competent pilot for already 6 years before even meeting her future husband Putnam. She set her first world aviation record (altitude) yet in 1922, participated in different air shows with flying and aerobatics yet in early 20s, and was already known and well respected in the US aviation community by 1927.
That was an actual reason why she was recommended (by Admiral Belknap) for the 1928 Friendship flight - yet before Putnam ever met her and was impressed by her appearance being similar to Lindbergh's one.
Many contemporary top class pilots (for example Jackie Cochran, Kelley Johnson, Paul Collins) and other aviation industry professionals who knew Earhart and flew with her expressed high respect to her skills and professionalism. General Leigh Wade who flew with Earhart in 1929 in the new Consolidated plane particularly difficult to handle wrote that Earhart “was a born flier with a delicate touch on the stick”. Meanwhile for Earhart it was her very first flight in that plane. In another case she flew in one day (on the airshow also in 1929) several planes that she never saw before.
It is easy to kick the dead lion and blame her now, after we know how her last flight actually ended. But there isa lot of what I like to call a "post-factum knowledge syndrome" in such attitude. Since the World Flight ended tragically for a technical reasons that are actually still unknown for sure, it seems unreasonable and unfair to judge about Earhart's (or Noonan's) general competence and skills just on the base of the sole fact of their failure to reach Howland in 1937, especially considering the previous long careers and merits of these two aviation professionals.
In her 16-year career Earhart never lost aircraft in the air; just for example the great Colonel Lindbergh bailed from a plane at least 4 times. Does it mean that Lindbergh was a bad pilot? Naturally not; it was just totally different period of aviation history, with very different standards of acceptable risks, safety and reliability of the planes and equipment. This is another factor too easily and conveniently forgotten by modern critics of Earhart and other pioneers. While flying in modern safe and comfortable airliners, too many people forgot that there were brave and skillful people who once started it all, took the risks and paid the bloody price for todays safety and comfort, and surely Earhart was one of them.
How is she a good celebrity look at this robot
exactly !!!! excellent comment !!!!
Krystal Dispatch Bettty Mcginty Carter woah
Krystal Dispatch Bettty Mcginty Carter mabe, but no proof.
I wonder if she actually disappeared purposely and went somewhere only God knows where and hopes to never be found.
I don't think so. Long story short, from all the evidence found, it's believed that she ended up on Nikumaroro island.
@@AmeliaEarhart537 hmm 🤔 that's interesting
Cat eyes...slits as pupils...a liar...
