Inside the hangar at Fantasy of Flight museum. The S.56 amphibian biplane was manufactured under licence by American Aeronautical Corporation at Port Washington, NY and was the first plane to be used by the NYPD. Powered by a 125 hp Kinner B-5 radial engine, the S.56B appealed to recreational aviators during the Golden Age of Aviation.
