Summary

DescriptionMcClellanAAF-CA.jpg	View of the USAAF Air Service Command repair facility at McClellan Field, California (USA), ca. 1944. The aircraft visible are Bell P-39 Airacobra (most probably P-39N) fighters used mostly for training before the fighter groups transitioned to P-38, P-47 or P-51 fighters. Only in 1942 a few P-39Ds and P-400s (ex-British P-39s) were used in combat in the South Pacific. Original caption: "To step up its delivery of Speedy Bell P-39 "Airacobra" fighter airplanes to American pilots in the South Pacific, the Army Air Forces Air Service Command put American production line methods to work in its repair docks at McClellan Field, California. Two and one-half million dollars worth of airplanes are getting overhauled by civilian Air Service Command workers at Sacramento, California preparatory to being sent against the enemy."
