Happy Birthday Amelia Earhart! Our favorite aviatrix was born on this day in 1897. When Amelia wasn’t busy flying and setting world records (12 total), she & her Lockheed Electra 10E aircraft spent their down time at BUR. Here she is in Hangar 2, which is still used at BUR today. pic.twitter.com/TGkKGXH7zI

It’s National Amelia Earhart Day! We remember her for the contributions she made to the aviation industry. But, did you know Amelia Earhart built her own roller coaster when she was a child? She later exclaimed the wooden coaster was “just like flying!” #InspiringWomen pic.twitter.com/tmWdzb39Hi
