In 1928, Amelia Earhart entered public notoriety for being the first female passenger to be flown across the Atlantic Ocean.

Ok, I did not know that. And yes, she definitly isn't remembered for that ... so I misinterpreted your initial comment.

Still not quite sure what your point was. Seems like you were just dropping a very convoluted fact in a rather dickish manner. But I appreciate it none the less.

I was agreeing with your particular point, there's nothing really notable about being merely a passenger. Even an aviatrix as famous as Amelia Earhart isn't remembered for being the first woman to ride across the Atlantic.
