Dedication of the new New York Municipal Airport, with aircraft of American, TWA, United and Canadian Colonial Airways in attendance. Commercial flights started on 2 December 1939. Floyd Bennett Field was too far from Manhattan. Campaigning for a new airport, mayor Fiorello La Guardia had refused to leave a TWA plane at Newark in New Jersey, arguing he had a ticket for New York.

Constructed for and delivered to American Airlines in 1937 this is one of the oldest DC-3s around. Its last commercial use was as an agricultural sprayer for K&K Aircraft from 1985 until 2004 out of Bridgewater (VA). The aircraft was eventually bought by the Flagship Detroit Foundation in early 2005 who's aim it was to restore the DC-3 to its former glory. By the time this picture was taken the aircraft already recieved its origional American Airlines colours but still missing one engine.
