Nov 14 (Reuters) - The U.S. National Archives on Friday released several batches of records related to the 1937 disappearance of famed aviator Amelia Earhart over the Pacific, following President Donald Trump's recent order to declassify and release all such material held by the government.
The release of 4,624 pages of documents, including log books of U.S. military vessels involved in the air-and-sea search for Earhart, was announced by National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard.
Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan, were last seen taking off in her twin-engine Lockheed Electra airplane on July 2, 1937, from Papua New Guinea en route to Howland Island, some 2,500 miles (4,000 km) away, during an attempt to fly around the world.
Radio contact with the plane was lost hours later after Earhart, 39, reported running low on fuel.
