Curiosidades

Sky Devils, also known as Ground Hogs, is a 1932 American Pre-Code aviation comedy film starring Spencer Tracy as a draft dodger who blunders into a war zone.

Production

Principal photography for Sky Devils first took place from May 9 to June 12, 1931, with additional sequences shot from September 2 to early October 1931. The locations for the production included U.S. Army Air Corps March Field, San Pedro and Venice, California, along with Yuma, Arizona.

In order to recoup some of the investment made in Hell's Angels, Howard Hughes decided to recycle some of the sequences and unused footage for a pair of comedies set in the air, Cock of the Air and the Sky Devils. "The picture contained parts of the dogfight and ammunition bombing sequences..." The remaining aircraft from the earlier films, a total of 14 World War I-era aircraft, were assembled at the Metropolitan Airport in Van Nuys, California.
