This is a 1/72 scale diecast model of a Spanish Navy Sea King helicopter, which I sourced on eBay for approximately £10. I have carefully dismantled, stripped and re-painted the model into grey and red. It has been finished with waterslide transfers to depict the Royal Navy Search & Rescue service livery.
This model now represents XV705, flying as callsign Navy/Rescue 177 from HMS Gannet, Prestwick. Together with XZ589, Sea King of RAF Search & Rescue (SAR), D Flight, 202 Sqn at Lossiemouth, they provided air SAR covering Scotland, large parts of the North Sea, south to the Isle of Man & Lake District, west to Northern Ireland and 200 miles west of Ireland. This is now a privatised service, contracted on behalf of HM Coastguard, to Bristow.
