November 14, 2026 | 10:00 AM

Join us at the World War II American Experience for a special Road to Victory Lecture Series presentation exploring the history and legacy of the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) of World War II.

Phil Roth, a member of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), will present this program examining the women who took to the skies in support of the American war effort. Roth brings a unique personal connection to this history, having served for a time as the personal pilot of Jacqueline Cochran, the pioneering aviator who played a central role in the creation and leadership of the WASP program.

Learn more about the women who flew military aircraft, ferried planes, trained personnel, and performed other vital duties during World War II.

Guests are also invited to join us immediately beforehand for Coffee at the Museum from 9:00–10:00 AM.
