A court order declared Earhart legally dead in January 1939, 18 months after she disappeared. She was 41 years old when she crashed, her last words where: “We must be on you, but cannot see you -- but gas is running low. Have been unable to reach you by radio. We are flying at 1,000 feet,” she said. Earhart's final inflight radio message occurred a hour later, at 08:43. Her bones were found on Nikumaroro, a remote island in the western Pacific Ocean, in 1940.(less)
