Eisenhower resulted in them being placed directly under SHAEF instead of AEAF. Its commander was also not universally liked. Sir Trafford Leigh Mallory was regarded by some as being too inept for his place in the high command.

It also had operational control of the Air Defence of Great Britain , but with that organisation not being under the control of SHAEF.
