Long Island Aviation Country Club was in Hicksville, NY which consisted of a rectangular-shaped field. It was depicted as having a 2,300' unpaved runway, clubhouse, tennis court, swimming pool and a large hangar.
After 20 years of flight operations the airfield was bulldozed to make way for the building of Levittown. It was the last major holdout in Levitt's grand plan. Today nothing remains, Pilots Lane is the only sign that the club has ever existed.
