Igor Sikorski was an aircraft designer in Russia. But he came to the US and began to build helicopters. Many of his helicopter designs were used in the military. In 1943, Larry Bell who owned Bell Aerospace was convinced of a helicopter design after seeing a remote controlled model built and flown by Arthur Young. Bell set-up a design shop in Garden Park, NY where the first Bell Helicopter was built. This prototype evolved to become the Bell Model 47---the first helicopter to receive FAA Certification.
