When the US entered WW2, most Americans were shocked and unprepared for the crisis. It's hard to imagine now, but the Air Force didn't exist yet, and atomic bombs were inconceivable. America - the sleeping giant - was awakened. Americans found an inner strength they didn't know they had as the country came together, stronger than ever before. This courage was exemplified by female pilots, a diverse and eccentric group with a passion for flight. Celebrity flying aces and bitter rivals Jackie Cochran and Nancy Love battled with the establishment and each other to bring these women into the war. Avenger Field was the top-secret Air Force training base in Sweetwater, Texas where American female pilots flew military aircraft in World War II. "AVENGER FIELD" is a character driven drama of 10 x 1 hour episodes per season, set over multiple seasons. This is an action-packed story of courage and determination as these bold women fly the most dangerous untested planes, fall victim to sabotage and abuse but continue to pull off miracles of skill to serve their country in its most challenging years. *Avenger Field, created by Kimberley Kates after being the only female producer of 30 men on a WW2 film where she learned all about the pilots of WW2 and the incredible contribution women made to the war that went unacknowledged for so many years. It is her mission to get the WASP's story told.*
