    Suggested caption for this photo: Cadet at the Ryan School of Aeronautics at Ryan Air Field on Ajo Highway, west of Tucson, in 1943. The school moved its flight training and PT-22 training aircraft from Lindbergh Field in San Diego, inland to Hemet, Calif., and Tucson under threat of Japanese attack during WW II. Ryan Aeronautical Company. Source: tucson.com/news/retrotucson/photos-ryan-field-west-of-tuc... The air field included "paved runways, aprons, hangars, barracks, mess hall, classrooms and recreational facilities," according to the Tucson Airport Authority. It closed in Sept. 1944, after training 6,000 pilots. Ryan Field is now (2018 info) a civil aviation airport managed by the Tucson Airport Authority.

    Instant favorite! I love all things aviation, vintage and historical photos, and WWII era memorabilia. This fits into all three categories. What an awesome find! Thank you so much for sharing this. This gal must have been a real ground breaker. Women pilots are rare even in this day and age.

    This is a picture of my Aunt. I wasn't even born at the time this picture was taken. Aunt Jean has sense past away. I wonder what the fate of that plane was. Would love to know the call #'s on the plane.
