Production. Airplane manufacture, general. Thousands of North American Aviation employees at Inglewood, California look skyward as the bomber and fighter planes they helped build perform overhead during a lunch period air show. This plant produces the battle-tested ("Billy Mitchell") bomber, used in General Doolittle's raid on Tokyo, and the P-51 ("Mustang") fighter plane, which was first brought into prominence by the British raid on Dieppe
