Lockheed L-049 Constellation Pilot Shop (N9412H) Looking Aft
Made by dlberek
This former Air France Connie is the oldest of her breed in existence in North America. She was flown into Greenwood Lake Airport (4N1) in 1976, with plans to turn her into a restaurant. That idea fell through and the aircraft languished for many years. She has been reborn into a pilot shop, complete with CEO SpongeBob SquarePants. Many thanks to the friendly owners who allowed me to take pictures of the cabin and flight deck.

Airport beside Jungle Habitat
Made by gillymacbeth
Jungle Habitat was a Warner Brothers-owned theme park that opened in the summer of 1972, and closed in October 1976. The park once contained well over 1,500 animals. The park featured a drive-through safari, in which wild animals were permitted to walk right up to vehicles passing through. Abandoned except for the occasional dog walker, much of the infrastructure is gone due to the efforts to clean up the land in 2005.

In an amazing feat of airmanship, the pilots landed this huge plane at Greenwood Lake Airport (4N1) in 1976, with the intention of opening up a restaurant. That never happened, and the plane sat derelict until opening up as a pilot shop. The aircraft originally flew for Air France.
