Female Pilots Ferried Aircrafts
Most people think of the 1930s and 1940s as a time where women didn’t have a lot of rights and were forced to slave over a hot stove in the kitchen all day long. But that wasn’t necessarily true. Not only did women join the workforce to become the breadwinners and pay the bills while their husbands were at war, but some actually helped out during the war like Hazel Ying Lee. It turns out that she was one for the first Chinese-American pilots, and like a lot of female pilots at the time, she helped ferry aircrafts during World War II.
