Design S1070A at a glance
A compass star round edged in navy, showing a helicopter over mountains with a star of life.

The compass motif and mountain scene make it a natural fit for mountain flight and rescue crews.

About this flight paramedic helicopter and compass star design
Mountain flight crews navigate by terrain as much as by instrument, and the compass star captures that. The helicopter over a mountain range tells the rest of the story, with the star of life making the medical role unmistakable. Navy and white give the scene depth, while red and gold add the warmth that keeps it from reading as a military aviation patch.
Rework it for your program: redraw the helicopter to your airframe, set your service and base names in the lettering, or replace the mountains with your own terrain. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Flight paramedic helicopter patch questions
Can the helicopter match our aircraft model?
Yes. Send a side-profile photo of your airframe and we redraw it over the mountains at no art charge, shown on your proof.
Can we make a ground crew version?
Yes. We can replace the helicopter with an ambulance and keep everything else identical, so ground and air crews wear matching patches.
What backing do flight crews prefer?
Hook-side velcro. It mates with the loop fields on flight suits and lets crews move patches between suits and jackets.
Is a subdued version available?
Yes. The compass star embroiders well in subdued sage, tan or black thread; preview each in the markup tool.
How do I send changes?
Mark them on the design with the markup tool — circle the helicopter or mountains, pin notes on lettering and change colors — and submit it with your quote.
