Sikorsky X-Wing → Sikorsky S-72 — Overlappngs subject matter, as the S-72 was the airframe used for the aborted X-wing program; both articles are fairly short as-is. - BillCJ 16:46, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No contest. Will merge shortly. - BillCJ 06:04, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merge completed. - BillCJ 16:28, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Whereabout

Is it known, where the S-72 is today, or was it broken up? --79.216.209.225 (talk) 17:14, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I was curious too, I know this is old, but maybe this can be worked into the article at some point. One is at United States Army Aviation Museum [1]. It sat behind a building for a couple decades in pretty rough shape.[2] I think at 31°19′27.1″N 85°41′57.8″W / 31.324194°N 85.699389°W. As of November 2022 it was hauled in for restoral, according to photos on their facebook page.[3] The 2nd one looks to have been at NASA Ames Research Center c.2004, maybe still there.[4] --Dual Freq (talk) 01:46, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
