Aviation and Airport Management

The Aviation History Online Museum was created in 1996 and is a collection of articles related to the history of aircraft, aircraft engines, historic aviators, and aircraft theory. It was originally developed as a simple portal for Aviation Models which began in 1995, but the history website has since developed into a much more comprehensive website. The website creator Larry Dwyer previously worked for Trans World Airlines at JFK airport for 27 years. He held positions as an Airframe & Powerplant Mechanic, Aircraft Inspector and Crew Chief and began working on Boeing 747s when he was nineteen years old. Later in life, he received his bachelor's degree in history from Empire State College which is affiliated with the State University of New York (SUNY). Larry Dwyer also works as a freelance writer and photographer for the Sandisfield Times in Massachusetts.

The Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum maintains the world's largest and most significant collection of aviation and space artifacts, encompassing all aspects of human flight, as well as related works of art and archival materials. It operates two landmark facilities that, together, welcome more than eight million visitors a year, making it the most visited museum in the country. It also is home to the Center for Earth and Planetary Studies.
