🌸AMELIA EARHART🌸
Dr. Kasparek would like to honor Amelia Earhart during National Women’s History Month.
“Amelia Earhart had a vision and followed her dream - despite what I can only imagine as a lot of people resisting female independence. Doubters thought that no one, much less a woman, could accomplish flying across the Atlantic. Airplanes were not what we think of today. She was incredibly daring, young, strong and fortuitous in her pursuit. I get scared to fly now in a commercial plane 2 hours over land - and that’s with aircraft control watching every spec of intel like wind, rain, etc. imagine being alone in a tiny airplane by yourself over an ocean for the length of time it took her, with only the instruments and technology of that era -1932.”
