NATIONAL HELICOPTER MUSEUM

Founded in 1983, this Museum puts the development of the helicopter in perspective with other aviation activities that occurred in Stratford, Connecticut from the early 1900's to today. The current Museum building was repaired and an exhibition set up, with a grant from Avco Lycoming, an engine and aerospace manufacturer located in Stratford for many decades. Overseeing the start-up of the Museum were Dr. Raymond E. Jankowich, a local pediatrician, and Robert McCloud, owner of a printing business.
