S-92 “Legacy of Heroes” on Display in Singapore
Sikorsky Aircraft Corp.’s S-92 “Legacy of Heroes” (LOH) demonstration helicopter will be shown on static display at the Singapore Air Show beginning Feb. 14. Sikorsky is a subsidiary of United Technologies Corp.
The tour’s stop in Singapore follows a series of successful visits in Malaysia where customers and community residents welcomed the aircraft and celebrated the exemplary and heroic actions of those who fly and maintain Sikorsky products around the world. Among the highlights of the tour to date were the LOH static display at the Langkawi International Maritime & Aerospace Exhibition (LIMA) air show and the presentation of approximately 70 rescue awards to members of the Royal Malaysia Air Force.
The tour commenced in the United States in September and has visited Malaysia and Brunei. From Singapore, it will travel to Thailand before heading to India for an extended visit to several cities there. A six-member crew is conducting cockpit briefings to showcase the multi-mission capability of the aircraft, and participating in first responder recognition ceremonies to provide community support along the way.
