Interesting diversion - near my home town.

Given the number of North American Aviation products (F-86, T-6) I'm inclined to say either Inglewood, CA (LAX) or Columbus, OH (CMH) - but I don't know why the military formation in front of the administration building.

Sorry, it is not Burbank/Lockheed, (posted on this thread a few months ago by your's truly), nor is it Inglewood. CA. It is not Columbus, Ohio. I do like it when people identify the state/province/country on their photographs.
