October 10, 2017 Brookhaven's Calabro Airport
October 10, 2017 Brookhaven’s Calabro Airport Voted Long Island's Preferred Location for Amazon HQ2 (BROOKHAVEN, L.I. – October 10, 2017) — Brookhaven’s Calabro Airport is Long Island’s leading location for Amazon’s second headquarters, according to a recent poll by Long Island Business News. Asking where Amazon’s second headquarters should be located if built on Long Island, the poll received a majority of votes favoring Brookhaven Airport. The news comes following Brookhaven’s official bid announcement, made by Town Supervisor Ed Romaine last month. “We are thrilled that Long Island Business News and its readers recognize that Calabro Airport is the ideal Long Island destination for Amazon’s second headquarters,” said Supervisor Romaine. “With more than 500 contiguous acres available for development and located just 50 miles from New York City, Calabro Airport is an ideal entry point for corporate expansion. I urge local and regional decision makers to stand behind our bid, which will ultimately benefit all Long Island residents.” “We know from Amazon’s RFP that Calabro Airport checks all the boxes and is by far the best location within metro New York. I hope that area leaders will coalesce behind this site as the best option that both Long Island and New York State have to offer,” said Kevin Law, President & CEO of the Long Island Association. Calabro Airport is currently owned by the Town of Brookhaven, which would allow for seamless transfer of ownership to Amazon. The site is strategically located within the New York Metropolitan Area, which offers a workforce of more than 10 million. -

“TWA– the Building of an Airline, As Revealed in the Private Collection of Co-Founder Paul Ernest Richter, Jr.” 1924 - 1949
“TWA– The Building of an Airline, as revealed in the private collection of co-founder Paul Ernest Richter, Jr.” 1924 - 1949 “The Three Musketeers of Aviation” Walt Hamilton, Jack Frye, Paul Richter ̶ 1 ̶ Overview TWA, The Airline Run by Flyers The Real story 1924 - 1949 Three young aviators with a common vision become the founders of “Trans World Airlines” A Documentary It was the 1920s, the “Golden Age of Aviation”, a time when pilots flew through barns and walked on wings. In this age of barnstorming and daring feats, three young pilots- Paul Richter, Jack Frye and Walter Hamilton took a chance with their life savings and purchased an airplane for the purpose of starting their own flight school. Within a short time, that one airplane grew to an airline fleet that pioneered the first passenger route system throughout the Southwest and forged the framework for modern air travel. Known then as the “Three Musketeers of Aviation”, these three young aviators with a common vision became better known as the founding fathers of Trans World Airlines. Trans World Airline set the standards throughout “the Golden Age of Aviation”. TWA was unique because TWA was founded by flyers. Jack Frye, Paul Richter and Walt Hamilton were visionaries of aviation; three men passionate about flying; always striving to reach for the impossible. From 1924 through 1947 their partnership and dedication to creating the best, established TWA as the leader in commercial aviation. This is the true story of the early years of TWA as told by Ruth Richter Holden, daughter of TWA founder Paul E. -
