Casablanca

Where were the airport scenes in the film Casablanca filmed?

Much of the closer work was filmed in a studio. Almost at the end when Bogart is delivering his "If you don't get on that plane etc, etc" lines, the plane in the background was about 2/3rds scale and had midgets working around it, as the studio couldn't afford a real one. I recall a member of the production crew being interviewed on TV and relaying this story.
