摘要

This year marks 75 years since the American Helicopter Society held its first Annual Forum in 1945. In this ongoing series, Vertiflite has been looking back on the Society's history and celebrating its incredible legacy through insights from the past. The American Helicopter Society, as it was then known, celebrated its 50th anniversary at the Sheraton Washington Hotel on May 10-12,1994. To mark this special occasion, the Society's Executive Director, Rhett Flater, had a painting commissioned.
