The Recruitment and Training of Glider Pilots

The growing pains of the Glider Pilot Program
2

The WWII Glider Pilot Program was started during the war and had a lot of growing pains. I discuss many of these in this episode and dispel many of the myths that have rooted themselves in the the glider pilot history. I discuss much of this in great depth in my book Suicide Jockeys: The Making of the WWII Combat Glider Pilot. If you woulds like to hear more of this type of podcast let me know in the comments.
