Subject: Location taken for some files

Hi, may I know where these photos (https://www.flickr.com/photos/sdasmarchives/4588015791/ and https://www.flickr.com/photos/sdasmarchives/4588015395/) are taken? If you would see on their copies on Wikimedia Commons (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Convair_Model_116_RFQ_view.jpg and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Convair_Model_111_RFQ_view.jpg), I nominated those images for Valued Image status (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Valued_images), and location is really important if they were to pass the review (see criterion 5 at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Valued_image_criteria). The exact location is not required, an approximate one would be fine to me (and probably the reviewers there). Thanks!

P.S.: Is it also possible if all your photos have approximate location added to them, just in case I nominate your other photos in the future? Thanks :)

Thank you very much. All of those photos are taken by the Convair Aircraft Factory in San Diego, at Lindbergh Field. We will try to add more about the location, but we have over 300,000 images and we don’t know where many of these photos have been taken. But you can always ask! Thank you very much!

(The subject says FW because arenga got my email from kpescador@sdasm.org, which is the recipient of my first email. I thanked them afterward.)
