Sikorsky S-38 flying boat "Osa's Ark" at Malle 19 - 21/08/2011

The unique and wonderful Sikorsky S-38 flying boat "Osa's Ark" will participate at the Photoflying Days and Fly In at Malle airfield between August 19th and 21st, 2011. In the legendary pre-WWII period Igor Sikorsky constructed his first flying boat which became the S-38. With their adventurous flights over the African continent, Martin and Osa Johnson would make this aircraft immortal. "Osa's Ark" is a perfect replica of this "flying Yacht" and will beyond any doubt be the star of the Malle event.
