Archaeological geophysics investigation of the Wright Brothers 1910 hangar site
Geoarchaeology-an International Journal, 1994Co-Authors: Dwain K. Butler, Janet E. Simms, Daryl S. CookAbstract:An archaeological geophysics investigation was conducted at the site of the Wright Brothers’ 1910 hangar near Dayton, Ohio. The hangar was destroyed as part of base renovation during the buildup to World War 11, and its exact location is unknown. The purpose of the investigation is to confirm the exact location of the hangar and to locate any buried artifacts from the Wright Brothers occupation of the site. Ground penetrating radar (GPR), electromagnetic, and magnetic surveys were conducted over a 68 x 100 m area, approximately centered on the suspected location of the hangar. Localized anomalies as well as areal anomalies are identified in the geophysical data. Rectangular anomalous areas are identified that are generally consistent with the suspected location of the hangar. A 1924 aerial photograph showing the hangar was digitally scanned and georeferenced to the site survey area. Two of the rectangular geophysical anomalous areas are consistent with the hangar location from the aerial photograph location. A third rectangular area, defined from GPR survey data, is immediately adjacent to the aerial photograph location. It is postulated that base engineers may have bulldozed the hangar debris onto an area adjacent to its original location and either burned it there or buried it in a trench. A prioritized exploratory program is proposed for investigating the sources of the geophysical anomalies. Q 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Archaeological Geophysics Investigation of the Wright Brothers 1910 Hangar Site: Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio.
1994Co-Authors: Dwain K. Butler, Janet E. Simms, Daryl S. CookAbstract:Abstract : An archaeological geophysics investigation was conducted at the site of the 1910 hangar constructed by the Wright Brothers on Huffman Prairie, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, near Dayton, Ohio. The hangar was destroyed as part of base renovation during the buildup to World War II, and its exact location is unknown. The purpose of the investigation is to confirm the exact location of the hangar and to locate any buried artifacts from the Wright Brothers occupation of the site. Ground penetrating radar (GPR), electromagnetic, and magnetic surveys were conducted over a 68- by 100-m area that is approximately centered on the suspected location of the hangar. Localized anomalies as well as areal anomalies are identified in the geophysical data. Rectangular anomalous areas are identified that are generally consisted with the suspected location of the hangar. A 1924 aerial photograph showing the hangar was digitally scanned and georeferenced to the site survey area. While two of the rectangular geophysical anomalous areas are consistent with the hangar location from the aerial photograph location, a rectangular area defined from GPR survey data is immediately adjacent to the aerial photograph location.

Archaeological, Geophysical, and Remote Sensing Investigations of the 1910 Wright Brothers' Hangar, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio.
1998Co-Authors: David W. Babson, Michael L Hargrave, Thomas L. Sever, John S. Isaacson, James A. ZeidlerAbstract:Abstract : In 1990 and 1994, archaeologists from the Cultural Resources Research Center, U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratories (USACERL) investigated the Wright Company School of Aviation 1910 Hangar component of the Huffman Prairie Flying Field Site at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. The USACERL archaeological investigations were integrated with geophysical studies conducted by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Waterways Experiment Station (CEWES), and airborne remote sensing studies conducted by the Earth Observation Research Office of the Science and Technology Laboratory at the John C. Stennis Space Center, NASA. Funded by the Department of Defense Legacy Resource Management Program, the investigations were designed to provide information needed for site management by Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and the Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park of the National Park Service. Site management goals included site preservation and public education. The geophysical and remote sensing investigations revealed magnetic, electromagnetic, and ground penetrating radar anomalies and infrared thermal images associated with the hangar structure. The archaeological excavations located an in situ wood post, posthole features, and artifacts which represent archaeological remains of the actual hangar. These results prove the existence and location of the 1910 Hangar and provide a basis for site management recommendations.
