Help with USCG MH-68 Rotor Color, Please.
Posted by rockythegoat on Thursday, June 2, 2005 8:34 AM
Trying to get my 'bird done for the "Attack Helo GB", can't nail down the main rotor blades color on the USCG MH-68. None of the photos on "Airliners.net" or the "Aviation Law Enforcement" sites are clear with the color.

Looks like the rotor head is silver, the tips are yellow. What color blades? White? Off white? Light gray? Mauve with teal accents?????Tongue [:P]

And here I thought the MG240 and mount was gonna be the hard part! Heck, that was easy.Big Smile [:D]

Cobra: Thanks for the pics. Okay, I see there is a black strip on the front of each blade. Due to the glare, still hard to see. I think I'm gonna go with a light gray. I also see the rotor head is darker then I thought.

Good luck on your time with Uncle Sam!
