The American Airpower Museum (AAM) is proud to announce its “History in Motion with Wings, Wheels and Warbirds” spectacular on Labor Day Weekend, Saturday, September 3rd, from 10:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Museum, Hangar 3, 1230 New Highway, Farmingdale, NY. Come to the Museum and celebrate the history of Aviation and Automobiles! Get up close and personal with vintage Biplanes, Model A and T Fords, plus AAM’s fleet of World War II aircraft. Great photo ops for aviation and automobile enthusiasts alike.
Early Saturday, vintage Biplanes from the Bayport Aerodrome Society will land on AAM’s flightline at Republic Airport and taxi up to park on the Museum’s ramp at Hangar 3. On display with the Biplanes will be vintage cars from the Model A Ford Club of Long Island (Model A and T Fords, plus others). And as a special promotion, Museum sponsor Cockpit USA has over-stocked the gift shop with discounted flight jackets; 10 percent of all jacket sales will be donated to AAM!
Guests will be able to watch flight demonstrations, weather permitting, featuring flybys by AAM’s vintage military aircraft that played pivotal roles in America’s WWII victories. An added attraction is that guests can actually take flights on AAM’s 1939 Red Waco UPF-7 Biplane, plus two North American AT-6D Texans. They’re available to give living history flight experiences, weather permitting. Admission: $15 for adults, $12 for seniors and veterans, $10 for children 5 to 12.
