The American Airpower Museum is Non-Profit 501C3 Aviation Museum and State Chartered Educational Foundation. A unique Museum where most of the historic Aircraft are operational and fly regularly during the spring and summer months. The Museum is located at historic Republic Airport in Farmingdale NY. The Airport established back in the 1920s by Fairchild and Grumman Aviation. Eventually the home of Seversky Aviation during the 1930s it would evolve into Republic Aviation in 1939. In 1941 Republic produced the P-47 Thunderbolt which would go on to be the most mass produced fighter of WWII with over 15,000 built. Republic would go on to build the F-84, F-105, and A-10 Fighter Aircraft all right here in Long Island NY. Today the American Airpower Museum calls one of the last three surviving Republic Hangars home.

My wife & I visited this museum on Jan 13, 2020. I am a Veteran Air Force Squadron Operation Specialist, being based in Germany from 1961-1966. I flew many hours in the F-105 Thunderchief second seat, there & in Libya. We have visited a few museums in the past. However, this was the most informative & specialized of them all. That includes all of the aircraft displayed & the data given by our guide. It covers the years of WWII, Vietnam Desert Storm & more! Why did we decide on this Museum....... They displayed an F-105 from the Vietnam era!! Standing outside the hangar in it’s camouflaged markings & slightly damaged tail, it made a powerful statement, awaiting it’s complete refurbishing. Made me proud! I recommend many to come & visit our countries’ past Heroes & the Aircraft they flew to protect our America! Thank you. TC

Seeing these reviews brought back wonderful memories. I was once a tour guide at the Museum of St. George- I loved that there was not a set script for the tour- we were allowed to modify the focus of the tour based on the interest of the visitors. A period costume was tailor made for the guides, and I even had the opportunity to participate in reenactments as a British soldier! Lovely family who held the manor in trust.
