Amelia, who knows this story better then I.. that's probably because
I'm a pilot.. Anyway, the name Amelia is the one and only Amelia Earhart!
After seeing this wonderful trailer I can't hardly wait to see the movie..

At 20:14 GMT the Itasca received the last voice transmission from Amelia giving positioning data. The Itasca continued to transmit on all frequencies until 21:30 hours GMT when they determined that Amelia must have ditched at sea and began to implement search procedures.

Amelia regularly sent letters to George at stops along her route. These were published in the book "Last Flight". On an endpiece of the book is a note from her to George...


"Please know I am quite aware of the hazards...I want to do it because I want to do it. Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail their failure must be but a challenge to others." George, was of course, amelia earhart's husband.
