It was no doubt that Amelia was a very adventurous spirit as well as a daredevil. She enjoyed doing daring things such as jumping off a metal tower with a parachute and piloting a one person submarine. Amelia was also friends with Eleanor Roosevelt, Amelia flew over Washington with Eleanor and she also drove Eleanor around the White House in a race car. Amelia designed her own clothing line for traveling as well as luggage that you can still purchase today. She wrote a column on aviation in the Cosmopolitan magazine and helped developed commercials for flying. Some people thought that Amelia and Fred were sent to spy on Japan by the U.S. because reporters described 2 people that looked like Amelia and Fred on a Japanese Island during World War II. Don’t be fooled though, no one could ever find any reasonable evidence that proved or supported this theory.
