USS Midway looking for a Sikorsky H03S

Thu Mar 12, 2009 9:10 am

The Midway Museum is looking for a Sikorsky HO3S or S-51/H-5, if you prefer. Any leads on restorable static examples, please respond here or send me a PM and I'll forward the information. Thanks!

I visited Lefty once years ago...

there were 2 old helios in a junk area at old rebel field, righ across the road from leftys house. I believe one of them was that model. Lefty was pretty mum on who actually owned them and they were in various states of disrepair. I don't know if they are still there.

There used to be one or two over in the Clip area of China Lake a few years ago.....good luck getting 'em from the Navy though. If they're even still there.

I believe they wre USMC variants (or Army, they were very faded OD green) There was a Piaseckie (sp?) Bannana nearby as well.
