I see you're from the land of Sikorsky...is there anything the factory can do for him...a manual or perhaps just a letter saying "Thanks for preserving history"?
Well, while we are definitely in the neighborhood (down the road) we don't really have that much of a in-house persuasion or pull from the "Big S". We have more than a few Sikorsky retirees that bust their hump at the museum, and while they still have connections at the plant, there all more or less informal. We haven't received any real acknowledgment from the main office yet. Were hoping sooner than later, but you never know. Hey, we were invited to be apart of this year's Sikorsky Day so thats a step in the right direction. Maybe next year we'll be able to display one of our projects!
While I'm not sure if Sikorsky would write a letter or something, I know we would! Especially considering we have a UH-34 of our own that will need ALOT of work when we finally start work on her. We may have some manuals or something. Drew King probably knows better than I do.
