A small bit more of history was recently added to the legendary aviation name “Sikorsky” on September 9, 2016 when Sal Calvagna for the first time test flew his amazing 16-foot-span Sikorsky Illya Muroments WW1 bomber. Sal spent 16 month designing and building this one-of-a-kind scale aircraft and it truly is a flying museum-piece.

Sal waited for the end of the day on Friday to test hop his scale bomber and that hop turned out to be a successful flight the entire length of the Old Rhinebeck Aerodromes grass runway!
