Looks like there are several beachfront pieces available and a private landing strip.
Hopefully not the land of make believe contracts.
Blue skies
Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do I see
Bluebirds
Singing a song
Nothing but bluebirds
All day long
Never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly
Blue days
All of them gone
Nothing but blue skies
From now on

Last waypoint was to be Howland Island, last perceived destination believed (by some) to be Gardner Island.
Earhart was supposed to have landed at Howland as it has a field. Gardner was only serviced by seaplane and Earhart was flying a customized twin-engine twin vert stab Lockheed Electra Model 10. Her aircraft was actually funded by Purdue University, which is the alma mater of our very own Hoopaloop.
Gardner is believed to be where she may have attempted to ditch.

From what I understand the Conductor grew tired of waiting for the larger than life diva to sing and so has moved on to another venue.
But in all seriousness... I'm ready for Howland now...
