The New England Air Museum (NEAM) is an American aerospace museum located adjacent to Bradley International Airport in Windsor Locks, Connecticut. The museum consists of three display hangars with additional storage and restoration hangars. Its collections include aircraft ranging from early flying machines to supersonic jets, as well as engines, and other pieces of flight-related equipment. Significant aircraft include
the Silas Brooks balloon basket - the oldest surviving American-built aircraft
the Sikorsky VS-44A - the sole remaining American-built commercial trans-oceanic four-engine flying boat
the Goodyear ZNPK-28 Blimp Control Car - one of only two surviving K-class control cars in the world.
The museum library has approximately 6,000 aviation books, approximately 20,000 periodicals, approximately 10,000 technical manuals, approximately 21,000 photographs, nearly 8,000 slides, over 200 pieces of artwork, over 1,200 prints, and approximately 500 engineering drawing and blueprints.[4][failed verification]
The mission of the New England Air Museum is to present the story of aviation, the human genius that made it possible and the profound effects that it has had on the way in which we live.[5]
