There will be a dedication and speeches from Andrew Parton, Executive Director of the Cradle of Aviation Museum, Jeff Clyman, CEO & President of the American Air Power Museum, Riverhead Town Supervisor Sean Walter, Suffolk County Executive Steven Bellone, Congressional candidate and Retired USMC LT Col David “Bull” Gurfein, Kevin Law, President and CEO of the Long Island Association as well as Daniel Preston, founder and CEO at Luminati.

Those who live on Long Island or have followed the Tech news may have heard about Luminati Aerospace. Over the past year, inventor & engineer Preston has attracted a literal dream team of scientists, engineers and aerodynamicists from all corners of the aviation industry to the former Grumman Naval Base at Calverton on Long Island.

Luminati was created to set a new state of the art in aircraft manufacturing. The team at Luminati is focused on perpetual, solar electric flight in the Stratosphere as a platform for commercial internet and government ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) applications. Alongside their cutting edge design and production technology, Luminati has also formed a joint venture with SeaMax America, led by local entrepreneur and aviator Richard Rofé. This venture aims to take advantage of the state of the art facilities and in house expertise of the Luminati team to bring large scale manufacturing of SeaMax Light Sport Amphibious aircraft to Long Island (with the added benefit of creating numerous aerospace jobs). Rofé’s SeaMax was awarded ‘Best Light Sport Aircraft’ at the prestigious Sun’n’Fun airshow.

VIP invitations for the event are available. Press releases and kits will be distributed on Wednesday.
