DAR Lecture Series: History of the College Park Airport and the Field of Firsts

John McCaskill from the College Park Aviation Museum will share the remarkable story of the world’s oldest continually operating airport. Established in 1909 as a military demonstration site for the Wright Brothers, College Park Airport has been the stage for countless aviation firsts - from the first mile-high powered flight, to the first female passenger, to the first controlled helicopter flight. Deeply tied to the origins of military aviation, this historic site has welcomed legendary aviators and pioneering inventors, cementing its place as a cornerstone of aviation history for more than a century.
