Amelia Earhart
In 1936, The New York Times ran an article about Amelia Earhart's plans to purchase a Lockheed Electra. "Amelia Earhart, first woman to fly the Atlantic, will hop here and there around the world," The Times reported.
Earhart was frequently photographed by The Times, including in its photo studio in the newspaper's building on 43rd Street in Manhattan. She was featured several times with full-page photos on the cover of The Times Mid-Week Pictorial section.
The pilot, perched atop the nose of her Lockheed Electra "flying laboratory," announced in February 1937 her plans to circle the globe solo. She died when her plane went down in the Pacific Ocean in July 1937.
