    When is the C-54 Departing Floyd Bennett Field?

    I missed it landing a few months ago, and I don't want to miss it departing this time! Does anybody know what day it will be taking off from FBF?

    march i believe, just at the beginning of the summer airshow season.
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Tuesday March 15th or Thursday March 17th if the weather is bad on the 15th.... But don't tell anyone, it's a secret
    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".

    March is the time when round engined warbirds in hibernation since the fall,stir in their hangers,and get ready to turn prop for a new season !!!
    The beehive hummm of the JT9D and GE CF680C2,the thunder of the JT8D-17,the rumble of the PW1830 and the high ,thin whine of the PW 545A are all music to my ears!

    If you come down to watch her depart, you may want to bring a shovel - we might have to clear snow off the runway first...
