[edit]

I think the link to Google maps is superfluous here. All kind of aerial, satellite photos and maps is already here. Just click on geographic coordinates link in infobox: 40°02′00″N 074°21′12″W / 40.03333°N 74.35333°W / 40.03333; -74.35333

Latitude

[edit]

Latitude is wrong. 40º N, NOT 48ºN

Hangar 1

[edit]

When I was at Lakehurst NATF in the late 1970s, Hangar one had a mock carrier deck [2] for Aviation Boatswain's mates. Lighter than air service stopped in the late 1950s.

The Navy officially announced the end of its LTA program on June 26, 1961, and the final flight of a Navy airship took place at NAS Lakehurst on Aug. 31, 1962. --Bob McArthur (talk) 14:47, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

[edit]

In light of renaming JB MDL Dix back to Fort Dix, I like to rename this article back to Naval Air Engineering Station Lakehurst. Any questions or concerns? --Zfish118 (talk) 18:30, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

NAEC

[edit]

There is a redirect from NAEC Airport to this article, and there was also a redirect from NAEC. As there is no mention of "NAEC" in the article, I've retargeted the NAEC redirect. But this article suggests that there should be something here about the Naval Air Engineering Center, and then NAEC should perhaps be a dab page pointing two ways. Over to someone interested in US air force matters to take it up from here. PamD 13:59, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
