Long Island Aviation Sites

1. Long Island Aviation seeds

The seed planted in Hempstead Long Island aviation Plains in 1909 when Glenn Curtiss flew over his first gold Flyer biplane, had sprouted and grown over six to ten years to eventually connects with its own floor of his moon.

Their sites of many aerospace industry, representing its general aviation, commercial, military and industry space, and geographically dispersed between Garden City and Calverton, telling journey.

2. Cradle of Aviation Museum

The Cradle of Aviation Museum, located in the Museum Row in Garden City, near the Coliseum, Nassau Community College and Hofstra University, said that the history of the aerospace industry Long Island.

Track your origin to 1979, when County Executive Francis T. Purcell has allocated funds to restore two hangars at the former Mitchel Field, seems dozens of aircraft, until it closed for renovation 1995. 130,000 square meters, $ 40 million opening on the 75th anniversary of Lindbergh's transatlantic flight in 2002, has more than 70 aircraft, spacecraft, of which 11 are unique creations, associated or integrated in Long Island and discovered during a search of 20 years it launched the bottom of Lake Michigan on Guadalcanal. They had been restored and preserved, then the retired airline and manufacturer of volunteers defense, which together contributed 650,000 hours-man for the project. Result was the largest institution on Long Island, year-round educational, recreational and cultural.

For New York Governor George E. State Pataki, museum visitors "can see the short period of years to Long Island to preserve the fragile biplanes of 1911 to build the lunar module that took mankind to the moon in the sixties. With these views, the home becomes a mirror reflecting our strong own skills, intelligence and ability to conquer time and space and pays tribute to innovation and the American pioneer spirit. "

The Cradle Aviation Museum, dominated by an imposing four-story glass atrium of the Reckson Center, welcomes visitors with a false ceiling Tiger combat supersonic Grumman F-11A Blue Angels livery and fleet biplane trainer 1929 2, which symbolically represents the upward rise of the aviation heritage of Long Island.

A drop of a flight led to the first galleries of the museum, "The Dream of the wings." Representing the triumph of robbery with lighter than air craft shows how balloons, kites, gliders, airships experiments and transformed the dream into reality the flight and his successors led to heavier than air, lift balloon display generation, tetrahedral kite Alexander Graham Bell, a glider, Otto Lilienthal, and a wing built in 1906 Timmons Queens, are surpassing the museum older. An engine of 20 HP dirigible Glenn Curtiss, developed two years later, a Mineola Bike Shop, which shows, in vein Wright Brothers, technology transfer bicycle on the plane with propellers and wings, complete the exhibition.

Los Llanos "Hempstead" gallery, the next meeting is a 1910 air meet. In the midst of the recordings to turn the propellers and faster aircraft, a collection of early drawings grace the grass area includes a carpet and an original 1909 Bleriot XI, the fourth in the world, the cell still operating, a fir tree and bamboo replica of Glenn Curtiss Golden Flyer the aircraft heavier than air flying first on Long Island, a replica of the Wright brothers Vin Fiz, a monoplane Hanriot, Farman biplane, a Anzani 1911, 1913 Studebaker car.

During the First World War, as evidenced by the next gallery, the triumph of flight has been transferred to the destruction man, that the aircraft has assumed the role of a mutual weapon, and Long Island became the center of military aircraft design, testing and production during this time. This is the first aircraft acquired by Charles Lindbergh, a Curtiss JN-4 Jenny bought in 1923 for $ 500 with a coach in 1918 Breese Penguin, only the 250 initially All other products, a state of airworthiness biplane Thomas-Morse S4C Scout with original Marlin arms, and F. Davison Trubee World War I wooden shed, which ribs Sport discovered the cell in a Curtiss Jenny with your engine, propeller and fuel tank and a 160 hp Gnome engine Monosoupope France 1916.

The eclectic collection of aircraft in this gallery include the sister ship of the original Ryan NYP Spirit of St. Louis and used during filming of the epic, Aircraft Engineering Corporation "Ace", which became the first American aircraft sports a replica of a Curtiss / Sperry Torpedo air, a Navy Grumman F3F fighter 1932-2 Scout, a model of Brunner Winkle Byrd A biplane in Glendale, Queens, a U.S. aerospace company Savoia Marchetti S-56 amphibian held in Port Washington, and a Grumman Goose G-21 Blue, Pan American Airways livery system.

During the Second World War, as evidenced by their respective galleries, the aircraft produced by Grumman Repubic and had been instrumental in the victory of the United States, and within six years from 1939 to 1945 accounted for about 45,000 cells had rolled into the production line. On display are powerless Waco CG-4 soldiers candle, which had been leading the soldiers behind enemy lines, lightning Republic P-47N, a Grumman F6F Hellcat, a Grumman TBM Avenger, a Grumman F6F Hellcat, the Douglas C-47 cockpit and nose turret and the Sperry A-2 firearm that had protected to the bottom of the B-17 B-24 bombers and long range.

The pure jet engine, as evidenced by the Jet Age Gallery, has revolutionized military aviation, by providing the aircraft with unprecedented speed, range, maneuverability and ability to attack, and Grumman Aircraft Corporation has played a role in this development, has designed more than 40 types civilians and military personnel totaled approximately 33,000 cells and employing 200,000 people on Long Island. Its military aircraft, in particular has played a crucial role in many conflicts, including Korea, Vietnam, Gulf War, the Balkans, Afghanistan and Iraq. Grumman outlined several models including E-2 Hawkeye Airborne Early Warning / Air Command and Control, a Cougar F9F-7, the front of the fuselage of an F-14 Tomcat, and a simulator A-6 Intruder cockpit, while the Republic Aviation is represented by an F-84B Thunderjet, F-105B supersonic fighter, and a season of A-10A Thunderbolt pilot. A Boeing 727 section the nose and the cockpit and a Westinghouse J-34 exhibitions around the turbine engine.

Aviation "Contemporary Gallery Features air traffic control radar screens that highlight the congestion at JFK, LaGuardia and Newark triplex, with secondary airports in Long Island MacArthur and Westchester County White Plains, and Farmingdale Republic Airport, the busiest general aviation States in the field of load shedding.

The "exploration outer space "gallery, which represents eight years earlier, the transition dramatically vacuumless atmospheric flight space and recognizes the contribution Long Island's rich aerospace industry. Its exhibits include a series Goddard rocket, an astronomical observatory in orbit around eco Grumman Grumman adapter a scale model of Sputnik, which was introduced by the Soviet Union and the original team has launched the space race, a ramjet missile Grumman Rigel from 1953, a Grumman Lunar simulation module and a control module that Rockwell had been used in a test of 25,000 mph re-entry into Earth 1966 before manned Apollo.

A Room "clean", which represents the environment in which all lunar modules were made by hand, leads to the exposure of the gallery and the museum's most valuable, real, 22.9 meters high, covered with gold paper LM-13, the thirteenth and final lunar module built, beautifully lit his legs, set on a simulated lunar landscape. Monument mechanical history, the lunar module was the first and so far only probe to be carried to humans to land on another planet or its moons.

3. Airpower Museum American

The American Airpower Museum, located in Farmingdale Republic Airport, steeped in history. It is housed in a historic warehouse, where he had been historic World War II aircraft built, and these were analyzed this historic airfield.

Republic airport itself, founded in 1928 as an airfield to be Sherman Fairchild Fairchild had become too small for the continued support FC-2 and Production Model 71, had passed the torch Grumman a five-year period from 1932 to 1937, when the engine Fairchild Aircraft Manufacturing Company and he had moved to Maryland.

Seversky, establish a presence on the ground in 1935, has continued its tradition of manufacturing and testing aircraft, renamed the Republic "of aviation" and considerably expanding its facilities with three new hangars, a control tower, and a clue. One of the main suppliers of military designs, has moved more 9000 P-47 Thunderbolt during World War II and 800 F-105 Thunderchiefs during the Vietnam conflict.

After acquiring the airport in 1965, Fairchild-Hiller Corporation in Farmingdale sold and became a public school the following year, and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), to purchase for $ 25 million 1969, changed the name of the airport of the Republic, the lengthening existing runway 14-32, the construction of a tower 100 meters from the FAA, and the construction of a small passenger terminal.

Aviation airport general release 526 hectares /, whose property was changed back to New York State Department Transportation (DOT) in April 1983, has about U.S. $ 139 million economic impact in the counties of Nassau and Suffolk. The base of 546 aircraft movements and 190,723 year record of transition, 93 percent include general aviation, six percent of air taxi and military per cent in a wide range of aircraft types including a single engine, multi-engine, piston, turboprop and pure jet and rotary wing, and the use of its two runways, 5516 feet of runway 1-19 and Runway 14-32 6827 meters. As New York, the third largest airport in terms of takeoffs and landings after JFK and La Guardia, and most of General Aviation, took care of 1,634 deliveries, mainly due to the rental activity in 2005.

Amid this atmosphere, outside New Road, is the Museum of American Air Power. Hangar 3 its location, was completed in 1927, with other structures at a cost of $ 500,000 and was 9,000 aa hatching Republic P-47 Thunderbolt II World War. Consequently, considered as part of the arsenal of democracy. "The museum, launched after a $ 250,000 grant from Gov. George E. Pataki and dedicated during the celebration Airport annual Pearl Harbor Day Memorial Service in 2000, was built as a living tribute to the people of Long Island Veterans to honor the past and present, and create a regional tourist destination and the birthplace of Aviation Museum.

Col. Francis Gabreski, who scored most of his victories in World War II Republic P-47 was the highest ranking in as Long Island and had previously served as honorary captain of the museum.

Also static sample in the cradle of aviation museum itself, The American Airpower Museum presents the sights, sounds and operational experiences of combatants World War II and the attacks, the first time in 54 years that the New York metropolitan area can boast of an achievement. As military aviation Williamsburg, installation accurately proclaims its mission ", the story flies."

Its diverse collection of devices includes neatly restored trainers, fighters, Navy carriers, the recognition of the oceans, bombers, and the post-war jet type II.

North American T-6 Texan, for example, makes its first flight in 1935 and was one of the most widely used advanced fighter pilot trainer during the war.

Among the fighters, the Curtiss-Wright P-40 Warhawk, also has made its first flight this year, reached speeds of 363 km / h, and is currently delivered to Flying Tiger. No aircraft may be more comfortable in the Museum's hangar Airpower America 3, however, that the Republic P-47 Lightning, the same design has been assembled here by thousands. Take the first plane of the track a few meters in 1940 was the largest heaviest in a single piston engine fighter ever produced a single pilot, reaching speeds of 467-miles per hour. The P-51 Mustang, whose speed maximum was 30 mph less than the lightning, flew escort missions at high altitude B-17 bombers and B-24 long-term, shot down more enemy aircraft than all other The Second World War II fighter European theater.

In Navy aircraft, the Grumman TBM Avenger, a torpedo Flyer company, had hunted submarines Germans off the coast of Long Island, while Vought FG-1D Corsair has been used by the Navy and Marines and has reached speeds of 446-miles per hour.

The Consolidated PBY Catalina, a high wing, amphibious reconnaissance aircraft flew into the sea with a crew of eight years, looking for enemy submarines. He a 2545 miles, a ceiling of 15,748 feet and 178 mph speed.

The museum of two engines, mid-range North American B-25 Mitchell bomber, named "Miss Hap "was the plane that General Hap Arnold, while the rate in general have become famous for the Doolittle raid.

The collection also includes several combat aircraft. The L-39 Albatros, for example, is a 570-mph car Soviet first flew 1968 and is still in service in 16 countries. The F-84 Thunderjet Republic, one of the first pure fighter, reached speeds of 620 km / h, and was the 1948 Korean War. The RF-84 firecracker, also designed for the Republic, is a photographic reconnaissance aircraft capacity 720 mph photography horizon to horizon, and served between 1953 and 1971. The F-105 Thunderchief Republic, a fighter aircraft and bombers to attack, had been widely deployed in Vietnam on Form F-105D, carrying more than 12,000 pounds of ammunition and reach speeds 1390 miles per hour. He worked for a quarter century, from 1955 1980. The service General Dynamics F-111, a supersonic aircraft, March 1.2, combat geometry variable, its first flight in 1967 and had seen in Vietnam, Libya and Iraq.

Besides the planes themselves, there are sections of the nose and cockpit, including Fairchild-Republic A-10, a Mig-21, a 18/C-45 there, and a Douglas C-47, and engines such as General Electric J-47 and an Allison V-1710.

Aviation The Second World War history also is told through film, scenes and dioramas of time, the model and extensive collection of memorabilia, vintage vehicles, a "Ready Room" a "Briefing Room", a canteen, "a gift shop, and music-related period.

Guided tours are given regularly in the historic center five-story tower located at 1943 Hangar 4. Viewpoint cottage in the middle of radio and radar equipment harvest Overlooking two tracks Republic, provides an overview of the functions of the controllers who are often vectors include coordination of the P-47, A-10, F-84S and F-105S drive in the region dense network of air base Zahn composed airport then, almost on the road, Grumman in Bethpage, Mitchel Field in Garden City, Floyd Bennett Field Naval Air Station in Brooklyn, and the plant Vought in Long Island Sound in Connecticut, a network focused on the role of nucleic Long Island in early aviation.

Due to the strength Museum collection U.S. air is mainly operating various flight experiments are offered.

Yours, and signature, the opportunity to board a Douglas C-47 Skytrain, after have been used by the Israeli Air Force, simulates the famous D-Day Allied invasion of Normandy during the early morning hours of June 6, 1944.

After donning the uniform of paratrooper helmets, parachutes and amended in the waiting room, possible bridges to go to the press room, where, amid of wooden benches and period maps, the current mission is detailed, and regrouping the necessary breathing space behind the hedgerows of France after having fallen into soil. French francs were distributed.

Cohesion, identically dressed team is now on board the twin-engine C-47 olive green, which is configured with banks wooden sides and were actually involved in operations in Normandy.

During a flight last summer of the year, the plane taxied to the airport Republic 1 and has launched its role as an engine driven piston acceleration, thus raising its tail wheel and go to the flawless blue sky, while the train retractable landing gear.

Climbing to 1,200 feet and maintain a speed of 125 kilometers per hour, twice the horses Douglas Long Island off the coast of South Beach Jones, who simulated the sand like Normandy.

Arriving at the designated drop zone, "the chief cried Width:" Arise! Check team! Hold on! "And his parachute lines connected to the imminent rescue aircraft.

Parachute jumping procedures were drilled and real 1944 event was staged. Unfortunately, realism is necessarily there.

However, after relanding, the feeling of disconnection during the day D real jump was recreated as Temporary bridges left rear, left panels, the velcro attached the lines separating the symbolic straw with soft off machine before being induced by gravity in an accelerating exponentially cloth French soil until the surface stop dismantling their parachutes blossomed profiles.

Before the abolition of uniforms, passengers must participate in their pockets to recover a map that reveals the identity of their historical or twice a paratrooper who had represented during the simulated mission. The parachutist, however, Real had made the leap. And the card indicates whether he lived or died as a result.

Apart from the experience of American airpower options Museum's own C-47 flight, static displays of vintage aircraft and aviation are scheduled during holidays and special occasions, such during the Memorial Day, the anniversary of the Fourth of July, historic, and the annual report Aces of the Labor Day weekend flight, the latter designed to encourage young people to write about the virtues, victories and achievements of a friend in World War II age or a parent. The winning work is credited with bombers flying experience. MAT aircraft included the C-121 Constellation, the Berlin Airlift "Spirit of Freedom" C-54, B-17 Flying Fortress, the B-24 Liberator, the B-25 Mitchell and PT-17 Stearman, the last four that were managed by the Foundation Collings.

6. Grumman Memorial Park

Grumman Memorial Park, located on a one acre site of the old installation Grumman test flight at Calverton Aerospace thousand feet of one of its subjects, is, by his own description, "a deliberate effort to pay tribute to the incredible advances in aviation and space flight, which took place on Long Island Team Thanks to the spirit of the employees of Northrop Grumman Corporation. This dedicated group of people left the aircraft from the deck of the fight against a U.S. Navy carrier aircraft in the first steps of man on the moon. "

Leroy Grumman Randle, the man behind the name of the company, was born January 4, 1895 and established the Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation 35 years later, according to the plate in the park "in a small garage in Baldwin, Long Island, New York. He and later in Valley Stream, Farmingdale, Bethpage, Calverton, and locations across the country, the company has designed and produced innovative aircraft and spacecraft for both the U.S. market military and civilians. "Got all these drawings were simply company's philosophy "Keep it simple … build it strong …. operate."

The first phase of the park, completed October 28, 2000, was devoted to "preserve the legacy of the Grumman Corporation (Y) for men and women who designed, built and flew the aircraft and space vehicle soared in the sky and beyond. "
