The Snapshots in Time Collection
Civilian Pilot Training Program Scrapbook Page, 1942
A page from a personal scrapbook documents a young trainee's first flights under the Civilian Pilot Training Program in 1942. Snapshots show light trainer aircraft, including a high-wing Cub-type monoplane and a radial-engine biplane trainer, reflecting the grassroots pilot-training effort that helped supply the enormous demand for aircrew during World War II.
