• 27 September 1965: The A-7 Corsair II conducted its first flight.  The A-7 would see combat from Vietnam to Operation Desert Storm in 1991.  
• 29 September – 1 October 1946:  A US Navy P2V Neptune, nicknamed the Truculent Turtle, crewed by four Naval Aviators took off from Perth, Australia and flew nonstop and unrefueled to Columbus, Ohio.  A distance of 11,235.6 miles which took just over 55 hours to complete.  At the time, this was the longest nonstop, unrefueled flight in history; a record which would stand until 1962.  The P2V or P-2 was a maritime patrol and anti-submarine warfare aircraft that was replaced by the P-3 Orion beginning in the mid-1960s.
