    Where Aviation History Takes Flight!

    Visit the American Airpower Museum website

    Over 90 years ago, the current home of the American Airpower Museum at Republic Airport was established as Fairchild Flying Field and its aircraft manufacturing added the Farmingdale Airfield to a long legacy of people, places, and companies that would make New York’s Long Island the cradle of American Aviation. In 1932 Aircraft Engineer, and pilot, Leroy Grumman would establish Grumman Aircraft’s first major facility at what was now the former Fairchild Field and design some of the aircraft and systems that would catapult his company to success as WWII fast approached. The mission of the American Airpower Museum is the preservation of aviation, and military history to educate the public, and the next generation of Americans about the courage, valor, sacrifice, and heroism of our nation’s veterans, aviation pioneers, and aviation industry workers of the arsenal of democracy. We accomplish this mission by preserving, displaying, and flying, operational and static examples of our nation's legendary Airpower and ground vehicles in our collection as well as through our related displays, exhibits, and event programs. We strive to create an experience at our museum that will educate and inspire future generations in the subjects of aviation, engineering, math, science, and history.
