Fighter Female Firing Fifties

[Dan K]

Well, that was about as useful as a chocolate teapot.

Yes, Sue Parrish. Any more?

Well, obviously Jackie Cochran and perhaps a few hundred of her WASP sisters.





The official history of the 586th Fighter Regiment of the VVS lists various models of Yaks used, but a few women flew in other fighter units as well. A P-40 vet among them?

Did any of the ladies of the ATA ferry Tomahawks/Kittyhawks?

You have your work cut out for you, James.

Everything fun has been legislated out of existence here.

Hardly. I have 7 ww2 armored vehicles, 2 quad mounts and lots of guns and nobody has ever given me a problem about it.

So there.

WOW!!! Talk about the American dream...you found it! "A guy between the ages of 21 and 49 with a dog, a big mouth and GUNS!"

Have no fear. I'm authorized to waive the age requirement.

Incredible she hasn't been mentioned yet...

Judy Pay - not only does she fly a P-40, she owns it.

Also, I wonder if Connie Bowlin has any P-40 time under her belt?

Forgive us, John. I knew she was an owner; didn't realize she flew it.

Yes, she has a rare P-40F I think. Does anybody know when these guns were installed in the P-40? Do all six function?
