Amelia Earhart was the first woman and only the second person (the other was Charles Lindberg) to make a nonstop solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean. On May 201932 she set off alone from Harbor Grace Newfoundland. The weather was a problem from the start and at one point in the flight ice on the wings forced her into a 3000-foot unchecked descent. She finally managed to level off and constantly fighting fatigue she landed in a field near Culmore Londonderry Northern Ireland. She made the 2026-mile flight in 14 hours 54 minutes.
The aircraft she used was a bright red Lockheed Vega 5B a sleek new monoplane with a fully cantilevered wing and roomy cabin area. It was the first airplane built by Lockheed. The first one flew in 1927 and 131 were eventually manufactured."
