Amelia Earhart Online-Only Exhibit "Our Poetic Tribute to Amelia Earhart" This Online-Only Exhibit was curated by NASFL Museum volunteer Lauren Crawford, a University of Florida student. The collection was Produced by Broward County, Florida Poet-in-Residence Anastasia Clark, who worked for a year bringing awareness, readings and workshops around South Florida. The collection is showcased at the Amelia Earhart Birthplace Museum, in Atchison, Kansas, and at other Museums and Libraries across the country, including our Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale Museum. The heirloom quality album features three original artworks by Shae Leighland-Pence and the works of 42 emerging and established poets with 49 poems from South Florida, California, Texas, North Carolina, Virginia and Utah. The collection was launched on April 2012 at our NASFL Museum. ENTER "Our Poetic Tribute to Amelia Earhart" EXHIBIT Aviator's Flight Diaries an Online-Only Exhibit
An Online-Only Exhibit focusing on a collection of Aviator's Flight Log Books. A personal look at flying diaries from naval aviators, flight officers and aircrewmen from NAS Fort Lauderdale and other Florida bases during and after World War II. In between their worn out pages we can explore the rigorous training, their flight accomplishments, and oftentimes their personal experiences. The diaries are nondescript in appearance, with worn covers and pages. The writing lists in methodical fashion the length and type of each flight hour, yet, there is much more to these Aviator Flight Log Books: you'll be able to sense the individual stories of young and seasoned men at war. This exhibit was curated by volunteer Lauren Crawford, a University of Florida student. In each of the Aviators Flight Log Books are columns for Date, Type of Machine, Number of Machine, Duration of Flight, Character of Flight, Pilot's name, Passengers, and Remarks. The back of the diaries have several pages for notes. ENTER the Aviator's Flight Diaries EXHIBIT Nicholas Vasil Thank you to Nicholas Vasil, for his outstanding participation, dedication and support in helping organize the Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale Museum's exhibits. He has about 25 hours of volunteer work, and says he enjoys seeing the results. We enjoy working with you as well Nicholas! He's a student at North East High School in Oakland Park Florida, and on weekends he volunteers at the Museum. He also attends the ROTC program because he is interested in the military. His goal is to join the U.S. Air Force. All the best Nick!
