pretty well known for her sexploits
quote:LINK
The publisher George Palmer Putnam proposed to Amelia Earhart six times before she agreed to marry him. First, she served him a letter detailing “some things which should be writ before we are married.” She would not be faithful: “I want you to understand I shall not hold you to any midaevil code of faithfulness to me nor shall I consider myself bound to you similarly,” Earhart wrote. She would not quit flying: “Please let us not interfere with the others’ work or play.” And she would not commit to forever: “I must exact a cruel promise and that is you will let me go in a year if we find no happiness together.” They married on Feb. 7, 1931.
It's settled. Would hit.

While plausible and quite possibly true, it's not certain and probably will never be.
Oh and here's a downvote for headline and link.

The ending is awesome.
This one's not.
quote:Whistled Like a Bird: The Untold Story of Dorothy Putnam, George Putnam and Amelia Earhart
Chapman follows Dorothy from her youth, when she exhibited an early love of the outdoors ("Up at dawn to go wild turkey hunting. Home at nine, then chopped trees, then quail hunting. . . ."). She shows her grandmother trout fishing with a rather stiff George Putnam in 1908. Later, engaged to him, she hoped that "he would loosen up a bit." The marriage was exciting and fulfilling in the early years. Later, Dorothy felt marginalized by her husband's involvement in his work.
Eventually seeing that her husband and Earhart had "become a couple," Dorothy longed for separation or divorce. Insecurity haunted her and the "charm" of suicide crept into her thoughts.
Moments of passion and joy play against the relentless march of time in "Whistled Like a Bird." The book ends on a poignant note: Chapman's chance meeting with the former tutor, the love of Dorothy's life, now a white-haired octogenarian. "He looked down at me for what seemed like an eternity, and then slowly turned to his wife. . . . `Dear,' he said with quiet dignity, `do you remember only yesterday I told you of a woman who whistled like a bird?' "

I have a hard time caring at this point.

How does one... "Safely" lane a plane, near, an island.
Ask Sully.

It's called "ditching" and planes with slow stall speeds can do it a lot easier than jumbo jets. In fact only one jet liner ever ditched successfully and that was Sully's plane.
You run low on gas, line up your approach, adjust flaps for slowest speed, and hit the water at a tad bit above the speed in which the wings lose their ability to lift.
If you do it right you should land pretty safely in the water.

Sully is the ultimate alpha.
