The female pilots of World War II (WASPs) flew jets and sometimes new planes the men avoided. They ferried aircraft from the factory to airbases to free male pilots for combat. They endured discrimination and were paid less than men for the same job. The Women Air Force Service Pilots had no military standing and received no Veterans benefits. But they proved women could fly planes as well as men and in time received their due recognition.
