Foggia Airfield Complex

During the First World War, Josiah Rowe's grandfather was an American Army Air Corps pilot stationed in a base in Foggia, Italy. There, the Ninth Doctor was pictured in the background of a photograph taken by Josiah's grandfather of his fellow pilots, ingratiated himself with the CO, and stole a Spad XIII. (PROSE: Have You Seen This Man?)

Behind the scenes

In the real world, the Army Air Service did train pilots at an airbase near Foggia during the First World War.[1][2] These airfields were subsequently expanded to become the wikipedia:Foggia Airfield Complex, which saw extensive use during the Second World War.
