Amelia Earhart became the first person to fly from Hawaii to North America on this day in history, Jan. 11, 1935, succeeding after 10 previous pilots died while attempting the same trip.
The pilot also hoped to promote a future in which commercial air travel closed the distances around the world. Kerry J. Byrne is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
"I wanted the flight just to contribute," Earhart said of what was, at the time, an unprecedented trip across the open ocean.
