On September 4, 1928, Amelia Earhart left Scott Field in Belleville, Illinois, in her Avro plane bound for Muskogee en route to Los Angeles. She was later forced down outside Cuba, but no damage was reported and she continued her journey. In this way, the path of the first woman to fly across the Atlantic crossed with the small town of Cuba, Missouri.
