I've never seen this before but had to have it for my home front collection. Something with Air Depot. Anyone ever seen on before?

 

Anyone know what the SPAAD stands for?

Vance and Johnny: Do you have a list of Airfield abbreviations? I have a list of over 400 contract airfields (name, location, coordinates), but they lack the abbreviation. I was just wondering how you knew the positive ID on the SPAAD...even though it's almost a no-brainer if you have some knowledge of air fields.

Well first off , you probably already know any of the "Air Depot" types usually have the arrowhead design in them , here's the ones I know of ,

SAAD -San Antonio

MAD-Middleton

RAD-Rockwell

FAD-Fairfield

AAD-Alaskan

SAD- Scott

HAD-Hickam

BIAD-Bangalore/Bombay India

I only know these as I found them online in various sites , airfields are usually associated with the AAFBU(Army Air Force Base Units)
