Needs a heavy wash of red clay then it would look correct. Heres hoping they do a Sea Wolves USN UH-1 too!

Yes with the words "Dust off" written on the side door windows. That was how they would sometimes designate a Medical Bird. It is a legend in my business.
 

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

I know my Huey's well and that one has a few problems on it....
I think it's funny the landing skid is on backwards...
