Papua New Guinea... I could write an entire book about what has happened just today. The flight was great, the aircraft performed wonderfully. The internet in Lae is not strong enough to post photos or video, but Shane Jordan and I are safe and well, back at the hotel. On our way here, we visited the Amelia Earhart memorial to pay our respects to the woman who inspired this trip. Tomorrow at 6am PNG time we depart to Kiribati where we will fly over Howland Island, the location Amelia Mary was set to land when she left PNG. We will be tweeting from the cockpit during our flight tomorrow- join me on twitter for updates via DeLorme. Live flight tracking: ameliaearhartproject. Thank you all for following... tomorrow is going to be a big day in the flight, crossing over the location that Amelia made her last radio call.
