Had the pleasure of being able to meet and talk with him, along with Nikolai and Igor Jr as well at the annual Two Roads Igor's Dream Beer release here in Stratford. Quite amazing men that have nothing but the highest admiration and respect for their father. They've toured our museum and are quite glad we are here in Stratford, preserving this local and international history.

Imagine this...your dad is responsible for desining stuff in 1910: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikorsky_S-1

To this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikorsky_Ilya_Muromets

The Muromets always rang a bell with me as a kid......an observation deck / balcony on an AC!!!!!

To the world's first large-scale mass-produced helicopter in 1942: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikorsky_R-4

Mr. Sikorsky did me a wonderful favor...
Three years ago his book was released and I bought a copy. I wanted him to autograph it so I asked the Sikorsky archives if it was possible.
Not so long story short: I received his address and sent the book. Not only was it promptly returned, it had a nice inscription complete with a nice drawing.

Thank you, sir!

I met him at a seminar a number of years back...great guy...had an iconic youth growing up amongst all of that history in the making
