Hello:
Only to confirm my ideas 6 month erlier than star...
If I'm making plans for a HH-60G From the 210th Rescue in Alaska... Is Everything O.K. whit that...???
May be, I need to take out the miniguns; and puts some Basket Strecher an Big Green Foot on it... To be appropiate...
Thanks

Why take out the Mini guns? I have seen HH-60's rescue people with the guns onboard. They are CSAR!
. Maybe I will finally do my 1/72 HC-130P... Or I could really mess with people and do the AH-64 that has been used in a rescue....

I'm in, Felixstowe, Do17,Do24, Nimrod or Walrus, or, if anyone still does one a Westland Wessex. Even discounting the Helos there are still an amazing variety of aircraft that could fall into this campaign, on TV a few weeks ago there was a Martin Mars water bomber, what a model that would be! I have nothing suitable in the stash so I'll have to buy, still, plenty of time. Great campaign concept

Well when the WAH-64 Apache did one of the most famous rescues of the Afghan war. They tried to rescue a royal marine. Unfortunately he died from his wounds. Would be a tribute to the two brave crews that went in during broad daylight to get him out.
If you haven't heard of it google it.

Sure. There was also a
Skyraider pilot who won the Medal of Honor during the Vietnam War for a similar rescue, but both of those were field expedients, not dedicated rescue aircraft. The intention of the campaign is to highlight aircraft whose dedicated mission is to perform SAR.

Time for a Bump...
Apart from Sam and Jessie we seem to have Helos. Come on lets see some more aeroplanes in humanitarian roles.
Here's one to get you thinking a Dornier 228-202

It's the 1/72 Revell kit. I have both the -100 and -200; a quick little google search says that this aircraft is a -200.

Saw this aircraft on a program called Dangerous Flights on the Discovery UK Channel. One thing to note is that the Dornier also has United Nations wrote on the top and bottom of the wing
