Florida—land of perpetual sunshine, open spaces, and endless blue skies perfect for flying. Blimps, hot air balloons, bi-wings, jets, space shuttles-you name it: if you can fly it, you can fly it here, and many aviators have. From the launch of Amelia Earhart's final flight to the worlds first scheduled airplane flight, important events in aviation have taken place in Florida. Filled with gorgeous color paintings by artist William Trotter, this book offers the definitive history of aviation in Florida—from the open-cockpit bi-wing planes used by the barnstormers of the 1920s to the jumbo jets and space shuttles of today.

Florida's contribution to aviation history cannot be underestimated. Wings over Florida chronicles the story of flying in the "Sunshine State," from the early pioneers in gliders and balloons, to the recent developments in the space program. The story of Florida in flight is even older than its statehood, with Colonel John Sherburne planning to use balloons as early as 1840 in the Second Seminole War. Not only was the first scheduled passenger airline (the St. Petersburg-Tampa Airboat Line) begun in Florida, but it is also home to the world's oldest international airline. Many heroes and heroines of the air came from Florida. Even those who were not Floridians by birth spent time flying in the ideal conditions that Florida provided. Pioneers, such as Charles Lindbergh, Amelia Earhart, Peter Sones, and Jacqueline Cochran, all took to the air over Florida.

Join a trio of Florida historians on this exploration of Florida by air. Few states can claim an aeronautical heritage as rich as Florida's. From early flights in tiny cloth-covered planes to the latest rocket ships, and from the first passenger flights to journeys that span the globe, Florida skies have seen the most primitive forms of aviation evolve into the most technologically advanced. In 1910, Lincoln Beachey won $1500 at the Orange County Fair for staying in the air for five minutes, just three years before Domingo Rosillo made the 90-mile flight across the Florida Strait in two hours and eight minutes, setting world records for both distance flown over water and altitude attained. A couple decades later, Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan left Miami on the first leg of their around-the-world flight that ended in disaster.

On January 13, 1982, Air Florida Flight 90, a Boeing 737-222, was a scheduled flight to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, from Washington National Airport, Washington, D.C. There were 74 passengers and 5 crewmembers on board. The flight was delayed about 1 hour 45 minutes due to a moderate to heavy snowfall. Shortly after takeoff the aircraft crashed at 1601 e.s.t. into the 14th Street Bridge over the Potomac River and plunged into the ice-covered river, 0.75 nmi from the departure end of runway 36. Four passengers and one crewmember survived the crash. Four persons in the vehicles on the bridge were killed; four were injured. The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was the flightcrew's failure to use engine anti-ice during ground operation and takeoff, and to take off with snow/ice on the airfoil surfaces of the aircraft. Contributing to the accident were the ground delay between de-icing and takeoff clearance.

With his new travel guide, The Aviator's Guide to Florida, pilot and author Udo Leinhauser has written the first travel guide specifically for private pilots. In addition to the usual information on flight planning, he addresses the first question most pilots ask after landing at a regional airport for the first time: What is there to do in this area? What most conventional pilot guides leave out, is covered here in detail for 40 select regional airports and airfields in Florida. Each airport location included in the book comes with maps, runway information and radio frequencies. However, Leinhauser has also provided background information on the region, described interesting tourist destinations, outdoor recreational activities, day trip ideas as well as tips on car rentals, restaurants and hotels. As a travel guide for pilots, it also naturally contains useful information on flying in Florida, with descriptions of areas that make for challenging flying, and airports that even the inexperienced pilot will have no problem flying into. With many color photographs and travel tips, pilots and their passengers can better plan their time on the ground to meet everyone's needs and interests. From restaurants in or near the airports during a short stopover to tips on full-day recreational activities, the Aviator's Guide to Florida contains helpful information for planning an interesting and fun-filled vacation in the Sunshine State. The guide includes information on: -Forty regional airports in Florida with a focus on tourist information, including getting around, food and lodging and tourist destinations. -Helpful information on flight planning -Reports and tips that are current and based on first-hand research
