History In Ten

Episode 2 focuses on women in flight - in the air and on the ground, commercial pilots and war heroes. Amelia Earhart and Sally Ride were well known in their respective fields, but do you know what Bessie Coleman achieved? What impact Mary Ellis and Helen Richey had on the war effort during World War II? Or how about Katherine Johnson's influence on NASA's space program in the 1960s? Join me as we talk about these heroic, brave women and their legacy on flight. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/history-in-ten/support
