Unfortunately now wedged in such that a good photo angle is not possible

In its heyday, Chicago Helicopter Airways ran passenger services between O'Hare and Midway airports, Meigs Field, Winnetka, and Gary, Indiana. The company operated between 1956 and 31 December 1965 when federal subsidies ran out, and tried again between 1969 and 1974. The livery seen here was white, blue and grey from top to bottom with a thin red cheatline and red titles. Later, N867 wore a largely white livery; this is assumed to have been during CHA's second period.

Former German Air Force H-34G was returned to Sikorsky and converted to an S-58T. Pictured with Queen City Helicopters (1982 - 2004?), the helicopter was last with Heli Flite / Aris Helicopters from 2004. While lifting an air conditioning unit, it was heavily damaged on March 13, 2011. After one of the Pratt & Whitney PT-6 engines lost power, the pilot attempted an emergency landing but the 4,700 pound load failed to jettison and the helicopter hit trees. The aircraft's registration was cancelled in 2013.
