Re: Photos USAAF Aircraft

Hi Nick

Is there any Internet source for this?

Reason I ask is because I downloaded "from somewhere" the stateside US training codes for Basic, Advanced and Transition training (single, twin and four-engined aircraft) and Harris Neck is not among them, at least not for the letter V

Checking Harris Neck on the 'net it sure was a training base alright, but wikipedia of course does not give much detail, except two FBS training units.

When these photos were taken it seems there was only an assigned BU to the place (346th) which thus presumably handled the aircraft and training.

Now, if Harris Neck is unknown to me, I also wonder how many other training facilities I never have heard about. Presumably these replacement training units were separate from the transition training done elsewhere.
Do you have more details about those?

Cheers
Stig
