EDITORS COMMENTS
Amelia Earhart's Historic Arrival at Southampton: The First Woman to Cross the Atlantic as a Passenger by Air Amelia Earhart, the pioneering American aviatrix, is warmly greeted by local dignitaries upon her arrival at Southampton on June 18, 1928. This momentous occasion marked Earhart as the first woman to travel across the Atlantic Ocean as a passenger aboard a Fokker tri-motor aircraft. Piloted by Wilmer Stultz and Louis Gordon, Earhart's transatlantic journey began on May 20, 1928, from Newfoundland, Canada, and lasted for approximately 15 hours. The Fokker tri-motor aircraft, a seaplane, braved the vast expanse of the Atlantic, landing safely in Trepassey Bay, Newfoundland, before continuing on to Southampton. Upon her arrival, Earhart was met with great fanfare and excitement. The local dignitaries, eager to welcome the trailblazing aviator, gathered at the port to greet her. Earhart's arrival signified a significant milestone in aviation history, inspiring countless women and girls to pursue their dreams of flying. This photograph captures the essence of Amelia Earhart's groundbreaking achievement, as she steps off the seaplane and onto solid ground, surrounded by the admiring crowd. The image serves as a testament to her courage, determination, and the limitless possibilities of human endeavor. Date: June 18, 1928 Location: Southampton, England Event: Amelia Earhart's arrival following her transatlantic flight as a passenger aboard a Fokker tri-motor aircraft.
