WWII C-47 Scenic Flight Experience Ride over Long Island

This 4th of July Weekend celebrate our Great Nation’s Independence Day with a historic scenic flight experience with us in the American Airpower Museum’s WWII Douglas C-47 “Skytrain” Troop Transport still authentically configured inside and out like the ones used to drop U.S Army, and British Airborne Paratroopers on their historic D-Day mission in June of 1944, as well that of Operation Market Garden in September of 1944. The scenic program includes arrival, briefing, and a scenic flight around the north or south shore of central Long Island. This offering is not the immersive "D-Day living history program", living historian participation is not included in this program. This program is just the scenic flight. Our Flight Experience program helps support the museum and helps us preserve our nation’s history and keep ’em flying!
