The Sikorsky S43 is a longtime favorite of mine.

Although I don't use it very often any longer, I still have FS9 (Silver Wings) on my flight-sim system. Basically it's set up to reproduce some of the early routes and aircraft for PanAm. Bill Lyons excellent packages and the Pilot's Boeing 314 are my favorites.

As completely out there as that story is to me, and indeed most of Kermit's endeavors outside of aviation, I have to admire him.... And, I personally believe, hey if it works for you, and if it makes you a better person and live a better life, and doesn't hurt others, I'm all for it... I am a strong believer in that you can believe in whatever you want, so long as it betters you as a person.....

Good for him...

So in a short time he has bought an S-38, S-39 and now an S-43..?
That will make a nice formation flight!
