Little video I put together. Anybody have an idea where it was filmed? North Island maybe?

Hmmm... Hard to say where it was filmed as there are not that many clues. The fact that I see an occasional ecualyptis (sp?) tree tells me that it is most likely California. If one stands on the beach in front of the Del Coronado Hotel you will get the same view of aircraft making final approach to NAS North Island's N-S runway. So it's possible that it may well be that base (then NAS San Diego). But then again do not discount nearby Miramar which was a joint MCAS / NAAS during WWII, NAAS Ream and NAAS Brown which were all clustered in the San Diego area during that period.
