Nature Calls
by Jack Bacot
Editor In Chief
	 Drylands represent an estimated
35 percent of the land area in
the United States. This includes
deserts, scrublands, savannas,
and woodlands. It is important to
understand how these drylands
will be affected by climate change
because they are a critical funtion
to the ecosystem (and the many
goods and services that they
provide) covering a large part of
the United States.
	 The rise of global average
temperatures, or climate change, is
a global phenomenon. Regardless
of anyone’s political affiliations,
rising global temperatures and the
subsequent impacts on communities
and ecosystems are universally
recognized as a serious issue
requiring urgent attention.
	 Obviously, we need to work
together to preserve these lands
and the environment by working
to reduce the warming effects
of greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere and thus reduce the
severity of climate change.
	 This old planet provides us
with much joy, as witnessed by
the beautiful landscapes of Moab.
So the idea is realtively simple;
be good caretakers of this Earth
and preserve its environment for
future generations.
It covers nearly 400,000 acres
and has been sitting undisturbed for
thousands of years. The area in and
around Moab, Utah is a national park
smorgasborg. Desert canyons, rock
formations and crisscrossing rivers
make up a stunning landscape.
	 Photographer Patrick Cox makes
annual trips to Moab and comes
away each year with striking visuals
of the area. (see Wilderness Journey,
page 94). His photographs are
dazzling images that document the
desert, rock formations, vegetation,
and more. But change is happening
and the tricky part is how do we
protect the area and its beauty so
that it continues to inspire artists
while functioning as an integral part
of the ecosystem?
EDITOR’S LETTER
8 _ Fall 2014 Tempus-Magazine.com
vignettes
Never think that names don’t
matter. They do.
If you’re a boy and your last name
is Mantle and your parents name you
Mickey, it’s a safe bet you’ll be fielding
questions about baseball for the dura-
tion of your life.
And if you’re a girl and your last
name is Earhart and your parents
name you Amelia, you most likely
won’t be able to avoid the subject of
flying for very long.
Such was the destiny of Amelia Rose
Earhart. Born in Downey, California,
“I decided to find the technology
and the resources to make this a com-
pletely transparent, engaged flight on
a daily if not hourly basis,” Earhart
says. “We had the technology on board
that allowed us to engage with social
media while we were in flight. We
were able to send out messages the
entire time, and the social media fol-
lowing grew in an amazing way. We
were getting Tweeted and re-Tweeted
and quoted on Facebook throughout
the day. We heard from people whose
kids would run downstairs first thing
in the morning and say, ‘We have to
get online! Where’s Amelia?’ That, for
me, was the best part. When you can
chart every moment of an adventure
like that, it makes people want to have
their own adventures.”
Earhart’s foundation, the aptly
named Fly with Amelia Founda-
tion, grants flight-training scholar-
ships to young women ages sixteen
to eighteen and fosters aviation and
aerospace opportunities for people
of all ages through an aviation-based
educational curriculum.
“We found ten girls before the
flight,” Earhart says, “and were able
to award ten flight-training scholar-
ships via Twitter right as we
crossed over Howland Is-
land,” the location of Amelia
Mary’s next scheduled stop
after Papua New Guinea in
1937—and the one she never
made. “That was really, re-
ally special for me. Only 4
percent of pilots are women.
That’s pathetic, but it’s
beginning to change. Now
approximately 12 percent of
the people currently in flight
training are women.”
Earhart, who had no previous busi-
ness experience to speak of (she had
been a weather and traffic co-anchor
for the NBC affiliate in Denver), sat
down with a big sheet of paper and
started writing down all the issues
and challenges associated with a flight

around the world. Then she began
checking them off, and when she was
finished she had a business plan.
Not exactly how they might have
drawn it up at a top-shelf business
school, perhaps, but it worked. She
went to Pilatus first. “I looked at the
reliability of different single-engine
aircraft, and I knew I wanted to step
up from a piston engine to a turbine,”
Earhart says. “The PC-12 NG is incred-
ibly reliable. It has a full-glass cockpit,
synthetic vision, dual GPS, VHF ra-
dios, and a high-frequency radio that
was about an eighty-thousand-dollar
add-on that allowed us to communi-
cate over our oceanic legs.”
“We had an extra two-hundred-
gallon fuel tank on board that boosted
our range to twenty-five hundred
nautical miles,” she says. “That was a
big risk for Pilatus to take because in
the history of the PC-12 it
had never been modified for
additional fuel. The plane
performed perfectly and

the trip went pretty much flawlessly,
but not because of chance or good
luck. We meticulously planned every
last detail. The only real variables were
maintenance issues and weather.
Those were the only two things we
couldn’t control. We could control
ground handling, security, pre-paying
for fuel in all fourteen countries, get-
ting overflight permits, making sure
we had connections and availability
in every single place we stopped. My
team did a great job of that.”
In addition to Pilatus, corporate
sponsors of Earhart’s flight include
Honeywell, Jeppesen, Dallas Airmo-
tive, Signature Flight Support, Pratt
 Whitney, Wings Over the Rockies
Air  Space Museum, Lockton, and
Global Aerospace.
Needless to say, the all-star lineup
of sponsors Earhart recruited played
a significant role
in the success of
the global flight.
“The Lockheed
Electra that
Amelia flew in
1937 was a twin-
engine aircraft
and had state-of-
the-art technol-
ogy for her time,
but she was using
Morse code and
celestial naviga-
tion!” Earhart
notes. “There’s a
great quote from
Amelia where she
said that the rea-
son she was making these flights
was so that the women of tomor-
row would fly tomorrow’s air-
craft. We really wanted to honor
her and carry her legacy back to
the States, and that’s what I feel
like we did.”
in 1983, Amelia is—of course—named
after Amelia Mary Earhart, she of the
fateful round-the-world flight that
never ended.
Amelia Rose’s parents wanted her
to have a good role model as she grew
up. Their plan, such as it was, worked.
Amelia Rose (the two are not related)
is funny, smart, gorgeous, and—wait
for it—a pretty darn good pilot.
She took her first flying lesson on
June 2, 2004, and was smitten with the
sky. But smitten or not, you’d have to
be a combination of passionate, driven,
audacious, and talented—check,
check, check, and check—to contem-
plate completing the most famous in-
complete feat in the history of aviation.
Mission: accomplished. On July
11, 2014, Earhart and copilot Shane
Jordan touched down in Oakland,
California, and Earhart became the
youngest woman ever to circum-
navigate the globe in a single-engine
aircraft. The two logged 108.6 flight
hours on a trip that covered 24,300
nautical miles and included seventeen
stops in fourteen countries. Eighty
percent of the trip was over water.
Earhart and Jordan took off from
Oakland two weeks earlier, on Thurs-
day, June 26, at 8:19 a.m. The previous
night her plane, a Pilatus PC-12 NG
single-engine turboprop, stayed in the
very same hangar occupied by the first
Amelia’s Lockheed Model 10 Electra
seventy-seven years and twenty-five
days earlier.
One of the many things that
Amelia Rose took advantage of that
Amelia Mary lacked—besides the
obvious things like GPS, radar,
killer comms, satellite technology,
etc.—was social media.
