Made just a few miles south of me on the Housatonic river.

Cool old bird. S55 or similar variation. Just guessing, the ones I worked on were much newer than this beauty. I watch the whirly birds around my place all the time, usually just medevac.

This thing has a big old radial engine. Pretty neat you start it up. Then let heat up. Then you engage the clutch to put power to the props. The whole nose is the engine. They had 3 of these at one time. Only have this one now. They flew it from Tulsa area to the Oshkosh fly in last year and back. They stopped at my hometown to show it off at the Amvets building. Here is a video you can watch if you have facebook facebook.com/watch/?v=441785311170469
