On May 21, 1932, Amelia Earhart flew from Newfoundland to Ireland in 14 hours and 56 minutes as the first woman to do so.

Four years prior to becoming the first woman to fly across the Atlantic she was the first woman to fly across the atlantic as a passenger.  

Today we honour Amelia for all the firsts she has conquered and the millions of women in the air, and down below inspired by her bravery and skills.
