  • O Cradle of Aviation Museum é um museu aeroespacial localizado em Garden City, Long Island, Nova York. Foi fundado para apresentar a história da aviação de Long Island bem como parte da história da aviação norte-americana. Está localizado em uma extinta Base da Força Aérea, também conhecida como Mitchel Field, que hoje se tornou um complexo multiúso que dá sede a várias instituições. Também fica próximo ao antigo aeródromo Roosevelt Field e de outros também extintos e localizados Hempstead Plains, cujo local é marcado por vários eventos históricos associados à aviação do país. Vários voos históricos foram realizados nesse local na década de 1920, sendo que já naquela época o agrupamento dos aeródromos era apelidado de "The Cradle of Aviation", que mais tarde batizou o atual museu. Foi do então aeródromo de Roosevelt Field, que Charles Lindbergh decolou com o seu Spirit of St. Louis, em 20 de maio de 1927, na sua missão de travessia do Atlântico, sem escalas, até o aeroporto de Le Bourget, em Paris, na França.
