Many of the television show's ground scenes were filmed at the [[Chino, California]], airport, which had been used for training Army pilots during the war, and where a replica of a control tower, typical of the type seen at an 8th Air Force airfield in England, was built. The airfield itself was used in the immediate postwar period as a dump for soon-to-be-scrapped fighters and bombers, and was used for the penultimate scene in ''[[The Best Years of Our Lives]]'' when Dana Andrews relives his wartime experiences and goes on to rebuild his life.<ref>Orriss, Bruce.
