S-60 Crane Concept Evaluation
Abstract
The Sikorsky S-60 Crane Helicopter was flown by aviators of the United States Army Aviation Board for a total of ten flight hours in the vicinity of Fort Rucker, Alabama. In addition, a Board pilot assisted in the evaluation at Fort Benning and Fort Bragg for an additional seven hours. The evaluation was limited in flying hours by the short time that this helicopter was available. Emphasis was placed upon the helicopter crane concept and features which indicate new developments in the state of the art, for future Army use.
