Working purely from memory here, so corrections would be welcome.


Canada?


RCAF.

Actually, some bases were under RAF control. For example, Greenwood, Nova
Scotia was RAF Greenwood from 1942-44 and then became RCAF Greenwood.
My hometown of Charlottetown, PEI was an RAF station as well (not sure if
became RCAF before becoming a commercial airport). I am guessing that
pre-1943 the RCAF just didn't have the resources to administrate and man
all of the training bases.
