You mean like Igor Sikorsky? Now THERE is a man who made Aerodynamics sit
down and ponder the meaning of life over a cold beer!

I've had the pleasure of seeing the Sikorsky VS-300, the machine on 
which he honed the basic design of the modern helicopter, on display in 
the Henry Ford Museum.  There's a film clip of Igor Sikorsky personally 
doing a demostration flight when he donated it in 1943.


It's a thoroughly ugly aircraft, but such an important one. :)
