西科斯基人力直升机竞赛奖,由美国直升机学会于1980年设立,奖金2万美元。虽然设立此项奖至今已有20年,但仍无人夺走。原因很简单,因为要达到此项奖规定的飞行要求确实太难了。加拿大魁北克省蒙特利尔高等技术学校有一群学生,他们正雄心勃勃,准备以其研制的“太阳神”人力直升机(见题图)将此项奖夺走。 Sikorsky Helicopter Competition Prize, established by the American Helicopter Society in 1980, a prize of 20,000 US dollars. Although it has been 20 years since the establishment of the award, no one has yet taken it away. The reason is simple, because it is indeed too difficult to meet the flight requirements stipulated in this award. A group of students at the Montreal-based Higher Technical School in Quebec, Canada, are ambitious and are prepared to take away the prize with their “Helios” helicopter (pictured).
