Chris,
Thank you for updating the thread for me!

Fouga23,
I would invite to to join the crew but the commute would get a bit tedious I am assuming ;)

Rear fuselage / tail section becoming more whole everyday. It's amazing to see all the longhorns and ribs clecoed in, only to have them taken out again for a different piece.


We're constantly in need of sheetmetal guys, tin knickers, and Rosie the Riveters.

Thought we Texans were the only one that ran cows in helicopters....now as to the the metal underwear......... got to be a Yankee thing.... :lol:

If you ever had a rivet gun loose its flush hammer in the nether regions , you would appreciate those tin knickers a whole lot more...

Charlie, Bill, Bob, Tom and Frank have been very busy this week. Check out the Spotlight housing that was custom molded, the front nose compartment is being ready to be wired, circuit breaker panel is ready for the breakers, The cockpit doghouse is about to be riveted and skinned, the fuselage is about to be locked down, new seat covers custom made for the S-60. They need more guys on their team, why don't you join the fun?

The Connecticut Air & Space Center was on hand Saturday (Jan 30th) at Two Roads Brewery to celebrate the fourth annual bottle release of "Igor's Dream", a Russian Imperial Stout celebrating the life and acvhivements of Igor Sikorsky.

The S-60 cab section was out on display. Needless to say, it was a huge hit! In addition to other artifacts on display upstairs in the events room.

We also inducted the four founders of Two Roads as honorary members of the S-60 Crew. Brad (the forth founder) couldn't make it unfortunately.
