Amelia Earhart, the renowned aviator and pioneer for female pilots, arrives with Eleanor Roosevelt to address the members of the National Geographic Society. Amelia Earhart's achievements were groundbreaking for her time. She was not only the first woman to fly across the Atlantic but also flew it nonstop in 1932, following in the footsteps of Charles Lindbergh. Her courage and determination inspired countless others to pursue their dreams in aviation.
