Amelia Earhart landed an autogiro at Grand Central Air Terminal, Glendale on June 7, 1931 while on a transcontinental autogiro flight from Newark to LA. Grand Central was an important airport and due to its proximity to the studios was often used in the movies. #LosAngelesHistory

This wonderful woman helped to change Ireland for the better. Why haven't we followed through and provided the services people need here at home?

“Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace The soul that knows it not, knows no release From little things; Knows not the livid loneliness of fear Nor mountain heights where bitter joy can hear The sound of wings.” -- Amelia Earhart (1897 - 1937?), Wikipedia

Diane Dodds and UU have already a track record of shafting Derry to promote Team Belfast. Just three months ago, they set up an off-the-books £126m loan for UU's new N Belfast campus while ruling out Magee's promised expansion. Neither should be let near the new Medical School.

On this day 88 years ago, Amelia Earhart made history. She travelled from Newfoundland in Canada to Derry in Northern Ireland and became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. How did she prove she flew out on the same day in case someone had said "fake news"?
