Senator Chapman had never HEARD of a helicopter in 1941, even though they had been in development in various countries around the world since 1920, and were in fact drawn by Leonardo DaVinci in the 1500's. The first successful AMERICAN helicopter, designed by Igor Sikorsky, was flown 2 years previously in 1939, in Stratford, Connecticut, and was of great interest to the Armed forces at the time, So Chapman, as head of the Armed Forced Committee WOULD have been aware of it.
