Scenes from Warner Bros. 1945 classic, God Is My Copilot, the story of Col. Robert Scott, early-war American ace (13 victories), member of the “Flying Tigers”, and author of a book with the same title as the movie. It was one of countless highly patriotic films shot during the war, a genre that, even with war raging, was getting a bit “overdone” by 1945. However, audiences liked the film, and even though it was released in the last year of the war, its fine inspirational theme and great flying sequences ensured God Is My Copilot met with great box office success.
These shots were from one of the filming locations – Luke Auxiliary Field #1 in the Arizona desert (said airfield is still pretty much intact today).
