The empathetic observer of the group. She leaves her home and fiancé to join the WASP program and do her part for the war effort. Edith “Eddie” Harknell (age 20s-Early 30s): The blunt, quick-witted, and brazen "hot pilot" who brings authenticity and bold energy to the flight line.
A confident, tall former teacher who acts as a motherly figure and takes on a leadership role (like squadron commander) while her husband fights overseas.
The brave, young dreamer of the squad. She dreams of what lies ahead and is a skilled flautist.
The cool intellectual and "mom" of the friend group. She is grounded, smart, and often serves as the steady anchor for the others.

A flight instructor and rare example of a female leader in aviation for that era.
A trainee with few loyalties and an often annoying voice who provides distinct interpersonal conflict
