Eurocopter/Airbus EC135 West Midlands Air Ambulance


Recommended Posts

Living in Birmingham I see the West Midlands Air Ambulances frequently and have a huge amount of respect for the work they do.

 

This is the Revell EC135 with the Whirlybirds resin Air Ambulance interior and decals for G-OMAA, one of the three helicopters currently in use and normally based at the Strensham motorway services on the M5 but often seen across the entire Midlands region.

Looks really nice & by what I’ve read it’s not the easiest to fit the cockpit to fit.

 

Where did you pick up the decals? Is there an Air Ambulance set? There are plenty of these operating in the UK, could be a nice little collection if someone has the patience!

 

 

No real problems putting it together but like all 1/72 helicopters it's fiddly being so small. The decals were from Whirlybird http://www.whirlybirdmodels.com/docs/pricelist.pdf If you want any of their stuff order soon as they are retiring next month. Modelling all the air ambulances would be a long term project and be very impressive to see them together. I'm working on the red Virgin sponsored London Air Ambulance Dauphin at the moment which should be finished this week.

Great finish and something unique.

The Apache is used to persuade the rubberneckers on the motorway to move on.....
