Black and white stock photo of Neta Snook Southern, age 84, emerging from the Flight Simulator for Advanced Aircraft at Ames Research Center, October 31st 1980. Southern, one of the first women pilots, was Amelia Earharts flight instructor around the year 1920. In marked contrast with what she saw at Ames, Southern said her old plane was made of wood and cloth, had no gas gauge, and the instrument panel consisted of an altimeter and a dollar watch hanging from a hook.
