Which quality or trait proved to be most troubling and difficult? why?
One of Amelia Earhart's characteristics, which proved time and time again to be very troubling, is her impatience. Earhart repeatedly placed her life on her line by neglecting to do a mandatory task, and they usually ended with Amelia in a position of great danger. For instance, on one occasion, she had not bothered to check if the tank was full during her pre-flight inspection, and had instead assumed that it was full as "Mr. Kinner always keeps it full." Neta Snook, her mentor at the time, and Earhart later found out that Mr. Kinner had not filled the tank. This jeopardized Earhart's status as Snook's student, but her mentor was lenient, albeit very livid at her apprentice's carelessness.
