About this helicopter and pine tree flight medic shield
Air-medical crews in forested country often want a patch that shows the aircraft and the terrain without becoming a busy landscape. This shield does it with three elements — star of life, helicopter, pines — in navy and gold only. The result reads like classic aviation insignia, which suits flight suits and helmet bags as well as station uniforms.
Programs usually redraw the helicopter to match their airframe, set their own service name and rescue division in the lettering, or add a red accent to the star of life. 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.
