 POWER OF THE PAST MUSEUM
Pay a Visit to one of Georgia’s Most Significant Collections of Aviation Ar... Back in the days before radio-controlled model airplanes, young James Dekle and his friend would fly “launch-and-run” models powered by $5 engines. On one particular day, the pair crested a hill in search of a buzzing model and discovered a disabled J-2 Piper Cub on the side of the runway. Being that Dekle was an avid reader of Hop Harrigan’s juvenile aviation comic book series, which featured an illustrated flying lesson in each book, he had already learned the fundamentals of aviation just from the comic book inserts. |
ELMIRA CORNING REGIONAL AIRPORT
Gateway to New York’s Speedways and the Finger Lakes Wine Region. With the introduction of Allegiant Air’s Orlando-Sanford service, New York’s Elmira Corning Regional Airport (ELM) has positioned itself as a major player in New York’s aviation arena. Considering its proximity to Watkins Glen International Speedway—a short distance of 20 miles—ELM is likely to become the gateway for Florida racing fans making the pilgrimage northward for NASCAR’s Sprint Cup or the WGI Camping World Grand Prix.
