Many people thought that she had some engine problems and had a plane crash and died in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
The search for Amelia Earhart lasted for 9 days until the judge decided to close the search for her.
Surprisingly, until today Amelia Earhart is not found yet but her plane was found.
