rotorwash Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I know about the R-5 Any other? A Sikorsky YR-4 made the first wartime helicopter rescue on April 23-24, 1944, in Burma. Ray Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Loach Driver Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Here is some info about one of America's pioneering helicopter pilots, Jack Zimmerman. He was later a test pilot with Hughes Helicopters and did some significant early test flying in the YOH-6. http://collectair.org/zimmerman.html A couple of books have been written about German helicopters from WWII. Some of the books are quite comprehensive but it seems nothing has really been written about Allied helicopters from WWII. LD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
