Connecticut's Aviation Industry: Sikorsky Aircraft In-Person

Join us as Arthur Gottlieb examines the history of Sikorsky Aircraft. Located in Stratford, Connecticut, this venerable company was founded by Igor Sikorsky in 1923. An early supplier of multi engine aircraft, Sikorski’s most remembered pre-war flying-boat was Pan American Airway’s “China Clipper”. During World War II, Sikorsky Aircraft emerged as a leading innovator of helicopters and remains a major supplier of this type of aircraft for both the military and civilian aviation markets.
