A quiet Long Island gateway where aviation heritage meets general aviation

Calverton Executive Airpark, located in Calverton on Long Island's North Fork in New York, occupies the former site of Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant Calverton, once a major facility for testing Grumman fighter jets. Repurposed for civilian general aviation, the airpark serves private pilots, charter operators, and light aircraft enthusiasts. Its wide runways and uncongested airspace make it a practical alternative to the busy New York metro airports.

Ground Transport
  • Rental cars available through local arrangements with advance notice
  • Taxi and rideshare services (Uber, Lyft) accessible from the airpark

Dining

On-site dining options at Calverton Executive Airpark are limited, with pilots typically relying on the small FBO lounge for snacks and beverages. The nearby town of Riverhead and the North Fork wine country offer a strong selection of restaurants, farm-to-table eateries, and local seafood spots within a short drive. Jamesport and Riverhead town centers are particularly good destinations for a meal before or after flying.

Traveller Tips
  • Call ahead to confirm FBO hours and fuel availability, as services can be limited on weekdays.
  • The airspace around Calverton is less congested than JFK or Islip, but always check NOTAMs for any active restricted zones from nearby airspace history.
  • Arrange ground transportation in advance as taxis and rideshares can be sparse in this rural part of Long Island.
  • The North Fork wine trail and Peconic Bay area are excellent day-trip destinations reachable within minutes of the airpark.
