GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.

Introduce a new generation to a memorable name in American aviation with this Piasecki Helicopter Corporation infant bodysuit. Founded in Philadelphia in 1940 as the P-V Engineering Forum, the company helped advance tandem-rotor flight with aircraft including the HRP-1 flying banana and H-21 Workhorse. Its story later continued as Vertol and Boeing Vertol, linking early engineering ambition with a lasting aviation legacy. A thoughtful pick for aviation-minded families, new parents, and collectors celebrating a shared love of flight.

Founded in 1940 in Philadelphia as the P-V Engineering Forum, the company was established by Frank Piasecki, Harold Venzie, and four other partners. Its early work included the PV-1 and PV-2; Piasecki designed and flew the PV-2 on April 11, 1943. After a Navy contract in 1944, the firm developed the PV-3, an influential tandem-rotor design. Reorganized as Piasecki Helicopter Corporation in 1946, it began production of the HRP-1 in 1947, known as the flying banana for its raised aft fuselage. Its helicopters included the HRP-2, H-21 Workhorse, and HUP-1. The company also developed the large H-16 transport prototype, which crashed fatally in January 1956. That year, the board renamed the company Vertol and forced Frank Piasecki out; he went on to establish Piasecki Aircraft Corporation. Vertol developed the Model 107, first flown in 1958, and the larger V-114. Boeing acquired Vertol on March 30, 1960, renaming it Boeing Vertol. In 1987, it became the Boeing Helicopter Division.
