more or lass as they do now. However, they didnt have GPS. They did use a system of radio navigation where ground transmitters be named a Morse Code signal which the pilots tuned to. There was no ILS or glide scope. Pilots "went visual" on every landing using their eyes and judgement to line up, stabilize and come in at a reasonable speed and decent rate
Japenese suicide pilots.

Yes, in fact 17 RAF pilots won the V.C. in WWII.
The Tuskegee Airman is the nickname for two separate all-black fighter units during WWII. The earliest incarnation was the 99th Pursuit Squadron. Eventually that unit was folded into the larger 332nd Fighter Group. You're talking about literally hundreds of pilots and thousands of ground crew who served in those units. Not more than a handful of them died on any given day. Currently over 100 pilots and 200 ground crewmen are still alive.
Many pilots during WWII, but some big names are, Richard Bong, Thomas Mcguire and Charles Lindbergh.
No. See: The Bataan Death March, the Rape of Nanjing, excecution of the Doolittle pilots, WWII, Toyota, Pokemon etc.
Kamikazes fought during WWII. The pilots were considered brave. Terrorists acted outside of their government's authority; i.e. not under a situation of declared war. The pilots are considered terrorists.
The Korean War was a re-play of WWII. With the exception of the jets, aircraft used in the war were WWII planes; this includes the bombers like the B29 Superfortress. The tanks, rifles, machine guns, helmets, hand grenades, mortars, artillery, were also WWII equipment. In fact, many of the US pilots, airmen, tankers, infantrymen, artillerymen, etc. were WWII veterans. Only 5 years separated Korea from WWII.
The WASPs: Women Pilots of WWII. They were pioneers, and as such they often faced disbelief and resentment from male officers. Nonetheless, the female pilots were fearless and committed. Thirty-eight women would be killed in the line of duty.
