Talk:Hewitt-Sperry Automatic Airplane

bronze plaque in Amityville
There is a bronze plaque in Amityville, New York (Long Island) towards the end of Ocean Avenue (where it intersects Richmond Avenue 40.658°N, -73.415°W) commemorating the first flight of this flying torpedo there on 11 September 1916 (presumably the flight was out over South Oyster Bay). A photograph of the plaque might help to illustrate this article. 69.126.127.193 (talk) 12:27, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
