Aviator Earhart (6)
I believe the answer is:
amelia
'aviator earhart' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for amelia that I've seen before include "Fielding novel" , "-- Earhart, flyer" , "-- Earhart, aviator" , "-- Earhart, US aviation pioneer" , "Fielding heroine" .)
