She was a free spirit. I admire her and wonder what she could have become
or how she might have chnaged the world if she had not been lost.

Bwahahahhahahahaha. She was an early example of the art of celebrity making.
Celebrated as the first female to fly across the Atlantic, she was dismayed
to discover that the actual pilots were completely ignored by the media, she
herself was merely a passenger on the plane. Nonetheless, she continued on
her career path, hubris contributing to her not so untimely disappearance.
She wasn't a particularily good flyer, not even a good female flyer, merely
a well publicized one.

As you can see, it's still a money making enterprise.

I'm sure it is. Do you really think she accomplished nothing?
