Or Arrrrrggggghhhhhhhhhh!
I received a documentary to review, a couple of days ago, Wings of their Own, produced by Mary Scott and Abby Dress.
And they interviewed about 100 women pilots, and each of these women has a few snippets throughout the doc of how they got interested in flying, why they fly, etc. etc. A few WASP were interviewed, etc.
But, guesss what. You don't know who any of these women are!!! Not one woman is identified while she's speaking, as you'd expect.
So, as a "take charge" kind of woman, I just have to throw up my hands at this. Give me the master for this doc and let me fix it up!
Each of these women has something interesting and inspiring to say, and yet we don't know who they are!
When they show photos of old timers - like Louise Thaden, or of race winners, they identify those pilots with captions, so I know they had the ability to put captions on each person, and yet they didn't. SO frustrating.
One of the "extras" on the DVD is a photo gallery of each person who participated, and their name is given there, but I don't have the kind of memory that can look at that gallery and then put names to faces when I watch the doc.

I was in the documentary, and I so TOTALLY agree!
I was in the documentary, and I so TOTALLY agree!
Each woman has always been able to be found on the website, www.wingsoftheirown.com which has the gallery, the names and links to more web info about each one.
I certainly accomplished my goal to "leave them wanting more", didn't I?
New website will launch end of January & all the pilots' links will be updated.
Enjoy!
Mary Scott, producer, "Wings of Their Own"
