A plaque commemorating Aviatrix Amelia Earhart's tickertape parade after her first trans-atlantic flight in 1928 is seen on Broadway in the "Canyon of Heros" in Lower Manhattan in New York on Wednesday, March 21, 2012. The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery (TIGHAR) is launching a search for Earhart's plane which they believe crashed in 1937 off the Pacific nation of Kiribati. the new search is spurred on by an enhanced 1937 British aerial photograph which possibly shows the wreckage of her Lockheed Electra. US Senator Hillary Clinton is publicizing her support for the privately funded search. (© Richard B. Levine)
