Go back and try to solve some famous murders like Jack The Ripper, Black Dahlia, and Lizzie Borden mysteries. The clothing suits me fine from all 3 eras, but I would absolutely have to be invisible. (and scavenge up vegetarian foods)
I've always been a fan of the unsolved. I'd like to answer these questions, and I'd probably be stingy and keep the answers to myself.
April 14, 1912- On the bridge of the SS Californian. What did they really see?
May 6, 1937- What brought down the Hindenburg?
June 30, 1908- What exactly exploded over Tunguska?
July 2, 1937- What happened to Amelia Earhart?
June 11, 1962- Did Frank Morris and the Anglin brothers make it to Angel Island or did they drown in San Francisco Bay?
Early December, 1872- What happened to the crew of the Mary Celeste?
There are more but I don't want to bore anyone.
There were already several billion people alive in the world on those dates, and none of them know the answers to your questions. Why do you think one more person in he world then could know the answer? Exactly WHERE would you set your 7/2/37 time machine, in order to see for yourself what happened to Amelia Earhart?

Those several billion people also did not know in advance that an historically significant event was about to occur, whereas a traveler from the future would know exactly where, and more to the point when, to be. Isn't the fantasy of it all the point behind this thread?
As far as the second question, on the plane, of course.

I would have loved to see: (if I had a time machine):
1. August 1966- The University of Texas tower massacre. Charles Whitman shooting at everyone.
2. August 1969- The Woodstock concert. God, I know I would had the best time in my entire life!!
3. 1972- During the Munich Olympic Games. I would have loved to see that and witness the killing of those Israeli athletes. And watch Mark Spitz and Olga Korbut make history.
4. July 4, 1976- I was already alive by then, but I was just a few months old. I don't remember any of it. But if I was older, I'd loved to celebrate the bicenntenial too.
5. November 1963- the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Wished I was there to witness or help witness if there was a 2nd shooter on the Grassy Knoll. I'd loved to have stopped him or something.
I would have loved to be a teenager in the 70's and go dance at a disco!
I would have loved to live during the 50's and wear all those beautiful clothes!
I would like to go back to my high school years and be a little more outgoing. I would change things for sure. I would not marry again at the age of 17. If I knew then what I know now......
Would I be able to change history? Then I probably wouldn't want to go. If it was just to observe, then I'd go.
1963 Dallas. JFK assassination, find out what really happened.
1949( ?) Roswell New Mexico. Same reason.
So many other choices. D Day. Seeing the Titanic sink, Custer's Last Stand at the Little Bighorn, The Alamo, observe more current political controversial events, not to mention major religious historical events.
Would food spoil? It might be fun to go back for those low food prices!
