OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Personal items of famous aviator Amelia Earhart are now on display at an Oklahoma City museum.

The Ninety-Nines Museum of Women's Pilots is now displaying a bracelet and scarf that Earhart wore on all her long-distance flights -- except for her final flight when she disappeared over the Pacific Ocean. There is also Earhart's pilot's license, navigational charts, gloves and flying goggles she wore.

Earhart served as the first president of the Ninety-Nines which was formed by 99 female pilots in 1929.

The museum is located near Will Rogers World Airport in Oklahoma City.
