The first thing we did in order to study this
old airfield was to reconstruct the map given out at the Visitor's Center
in a program called Macromedia Flash. Take a look at what our Flash file
looks like, or learn how we made it here.
We were all convinced that the Main Building was the center of the
original airport. We also noticed many of the hangars where the airplanes were
kept. There is even one hangar now called H.A.R.P, which rebuilds vintage airplanes
and other flying machines!

Here is an aerial photo of Floyd Bennett Field during the year 1955.
Look we found another aerial photo of Floyd Bennett Field that was taken recently. It is very cool to compare the two photographs!
