Cropped image of Amelia Earhart at the Langley Research Building. During her tour of Langley, in November 1928, she had part of her raccoon fur coat sucked into the 11 Inch High Speed Tunnel. Amelia Mary Earhart (July 24, 1897 - disappeared July 2, 1937) was an American aviation pioneer. In 1932 she became the first woman to fly solo across in the Atlantic.
