The Sikorsky H-19 Chickasaw (company
model number S-55) was a multi-purpose helicopter used by the U.S. Army
and USAF. It was also license-built by Westland Aircraft as the Westland
Whirlwind in the United Kingdom.
Development of the H-19 was initiated privately by Sikorsky without
government sponsorship. The helicopter was initially designed as a
testbed for several novel design concepts intended to provide greater
load-carrying ability in combination with easy maintenance.
The first customer was the USAF, which ordered five YH-19 aircraft for
evaluation; the YH-19's first flight was on 10 November 1949. This was
followed by delivery of the first YH-19 to the USAF on 16 April 1950 and
delivery of the first HO4S-1 helicopter to the U.S. Navy on 31 August
1950. |

Die Sikorsky H-19 Chickasaw
(Modellnummer S-55) war ein Mehrzweckhubschrauber, der von der U.S. Army und
der USAF verwendet wurde. Es wurde auch von Westland Aircraft als Westland
Whirlwind in Großbritannien in Lizenz gefertigt.
Die Entwicklung der H-19 wurde von Sikorsky ohne staatliche Förderung privat
initiiert. Der Helikopter wurde ursprünglich als Testmaschine für mehrere
neuartige Konstruktionskonzepte entwickelt, die eine größere Tragfähigkeit
in Verbindung mit einfacher Wartung ermöglichen sollten.
Der erste Kunde war die USAF, die fünf YH-19 Maschinen zu Testzwecken
bestellte; Der erste Flug der YH-19 war am 10. November 1949. Es folgte die
Auslieferung der ersten YH-19 an die USAF am 16. April 1950 und die
Auslieferung des ersten HO4S-1-Hubschraubers an die U.S. Navy am 31. August
1950. |
