Instructions
Over  sixty  years  after  Amelia  Earhart  vanished  mysteriously  in  the  Pacific  during  her  attempt  to  become  the  first  person  to  circumnavigate  the  world  along  the  equator,  Linda  Finch,  a  San  Antonio  businesswoman,  accomplished  pilot,  and  aviation  historian,  recreated  and  completed  her  idols  last  flight  as  a    to  the  aviation  pioneers  spirit  and  vision.
On  March  17,  1997,  Ms.  Finch  and  a  navigator  took  off  from  Oakland  International  Airport,  California,  in  a  restored  Lockheed  Electra  10E,  the  same  make  and  model  aircraft  that  Earhart  used  on  her  last  journey.  The  mission  to  fulfill  Amelia  Earharts  dream  was  called  World  Flight  1997.  Although  Ms.  Finch  was  not  the  first  to    Earharts  around-the-world  journey,  she  was  the  first  to  do  it  in  a  historic  airplane.  Linda  Finch  closely  followed  the  same  route  that  Earhart  flew,  stopping  in  18  countries  before  finishing  the  trip  two  and  a  half  months  later  when  she    back  at  the  Oakland  Airport  on  May  28.
Over  a  million  school  children  and  others  were  able  to  follow  the  flight  daily  through  an    web  site  part  of  a  free  multimedia  educational  program  called  You  Can  Soar,  provided  by  the  projects  sponsor.
