Women have been flying military aircraft for decades, and they did so during WWII. In this country, the USA, they really haven't been given their due credit and recognition. It's about time that they do get that credit! They need to be honored, and young people, especially girls, should learn about them.

There has been such a steady resistance when it comes to women fliers. But they do just as well, and very often better than male pilots.

Here is an article that hits home for me on two fronts, because I am both a pilot and a filmmaker. I produce and sometimes direct. Check this article out, how it takes so long for women of excellence to get credit for what they do.
