Just throwing this idea out that i've been mulling around for some time now, how about a 'rescue me' campaign?

Basically the campaign will be for any aircraft used in the rescue or humanitarian role. just some examples would be:

HH-60J Jayhawk
Seaking / SH-3H
C-130 Hercules (maybe in UN markings)
AN-12
Fire fighting planes
Air Ambulances (maybe including police helicopters)
Coast Guard aircraft?

My thoughts are to see some brightly coloured aircraft rather than the usual grey and camo aircraft, but I realise that some military aircraft are used in these roles nowadays with out being repainted so these will be allowed as long as they are backed up with a picture of the aircraft in the role.

I'll leave the rules open to more scope so any other suggestions would be welcomed.

If it goes ahead I will be in with this:



well have to join in really otherwise don't think I would hear the end of it

Count me in!

Let's see, I have a Buffalo, an Albatross, and a Be-12P all in 1/144. In 1/72 I have a Labrador, Cormorant, H-21, Albatross, Dakota and in 1/48 I've got a Labrador and H-21. I think that just maybe I might have a kit for this campaign...

Somehow I just knew you'd have something in the stash for this Jessie

If it get enough interest I'd probably be building either this with some etch and scratch built interior goodies



or this Hasegawa 1/48 Sikorsky SH-3H Sea King with some flightpath etch goodies

Bump

If the campaign goes ahead you'll even get this cool ribbon to adorn you profile page*



*unless a better one is designed and used

Yes, way not...???

I've a Pavehawk ans an MBB-105 on some pleace on my stash..!!!

Bye

Half way there just need another 5 to show interest Well I took the plunge and ordered the Lancaster kit as Ive been looking at it the last year or so at least if the campaign goes ahead it means it wont be just put into the stash and might actually get built

I am in. I am not sure with what. But I have the old Matchbox Halifax that has a sea rescue version in the box as I recall.....

I have a 1:144 A-model Albatross that would fit here.

The ultimate rescue aircraft.



tim

I'm sure I can dig something up, so I'm in.

I'm in, I'll use coast guard markings on either my widgeon, or goose...

Of course you do !

I’m also in, i’ll be building the HKP 10 (short for helicopter 10) from Italeri if that’s okay.

I have a PBY that would fit the bill for this campaign

the campaign sign up page says this campaign starts and ends in 2012 - shouldn't that be 2013?

Well I count more than 10 so the campaign has been approved and will start on the 1st July 2013

Enlist Here

Keep you ideas coming

Yeah just tweaking the dates as we speak

Hey Allen
I have a Revell Bell H-13H in 1/35 scale in the stash and I just looked and it come with litters for the landing skids and red cross marking so that should fly here I'll sign up for this 1

Welcome Sal, That'll certainly fit the bill

Is possible to make any CSAR helicopter?

Search and Rescue.

Thanks Jonathan....
I will be in with a Sea King of the Argentine Navy
The picture is a S-92.... I want this in 1/48!!!!!

Yes but the only caveat is if the plane or helo are in military markings a picture of the aircraft performing the rescue or humanitarian act must accompany the build Like Jonathon's picture or Jakob's idea of a HKP 10
