  • The Quonset Air Museum was an aerospace museum located in in North Kingstown, Rhode Island. The museum's collection included: missiles, aircraft and over 5000 smaller aviation artifacts. An extensive archive of magazines, manuals, photos and blueprints were stored within the Quonset Air Museum. Notable aircraft in the collection included the last surviving Curtiss XF15C mixed propulsion prototype and a twin tail C-1A Trader. This one of a kind aircraft had been fitted with twin tails and radome (but without associated electronics) to serve the aerodynamic prototype for the E-1 Tracer Electronic Counter Measure aircraft. This C-1A has the distinction of being the last aircraft to fly from Naval Air Station Quonset Point upon its closure in 1974. The museum housed several Vietnam era aircraft as well as the legendary Grumman F-14 Tomcat almost all the air craft and most small items were on loan from USN Heritage, Pensacola Florida. (en)
