Wild Hare Press - Survey Form

"FLYING INTO YESTERDAY" SURVEY FORM

This survey is intended for use by anyone who has direct experience of, is related to, or has personal information about the Curtiss-Wright Cadettes. PLEASE answer only those questions for which you have concrete knowledge!

I welcome "informants" and actual participants in the Cadette Program to fill in some of the blanks about the Curtiss-Wright Company and how they created (and ran) this training for women - or how they ended it. I especially invite anyone who worked for the company or knows a Curtiss-Wright Cadette to respond. Answers you type on the lines in this document will be automatically sent to me for my cataloguing.

PICTURES: If you also upload a picture of relevance to this story, I will try to include it on the website on my THE CADETTES page so others can enjoy it, too.
VITAL: Please state whether the picture is copyrighted and whether you or someone else owns that copyright.

Only upload one photo at a time. (5 MB max) Please provide 300 DPI resolution, if possible.

Thank you for taking the time to do this!
