New reports say repairs to Marine One helicopters, which transport the president of the United States, will no longer be handled in Connecticut.
Published reports say Lockheed Martin, the parent company of Sikorsky, has negotiated with the U.S. Navy to move the repair station to a facility in Florida.
About 85 Sikorsky employees handle the repairs at the company's Stratford plant, but there's no word yet how they will be affected.
