Sadly, the Drop Zone is now a wildlife sanctuary.

<<<I've heard Floyd Bennett (sp?) on LI is huge (national size).  I heard it

Floyd Bennett Field is now owned by NYC not the military. It is used as a
base for their helicopters as well as used for their vehicle training. I'd
guess they would be unreceptive on a number of grounds and I bet you would
have to contend with weeds growing in the gaps between concrete blocks. You
would probably have better luck talking Nassau Coliseum into removing the
curbing between the two big lots so you could combine them for enough room
for a Pro Solo course. Whatever happened to the Drop Zone?
