About this diamond helicopter air ambulance shield
Air medical crews want a patch that says flight at a glance, and a helicopter over a Star of Life does exactly that. The diamond treatment of the star gives this shield its own geometry, separating it from the round emblems most programs use. Royal and light blue set the sky, while red and gold keep the aircraft and lettering sharp on a flight suit.
Customize it for your program: set your service name, founding year, motto and base or division, redraw the helicopter to match your airframe, or build a subdued version for flight suits and helmet bags. 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.

Diamond air ambulance patch questions
Can the helicopter match our aircraft?
Yes. Send a photo of your airframe and we redraw it — rotor, tail and fuselage — at no art charge.
What backing do flight crews use?
Hook-side velcro, so one set of patches moves between flight suits and jackets. Sew-on remains an option for crew shirts.
Can each base have its own division line?
Yes. Keep the art and change only that line; every base's version goes on one quote, and the combined count sets the price.
Is a subdued version available?
Yes. Gray, black and tan builds stitch cleanly because the helicopter and diamond are bold shapes. Preview them in the markup tool.
How do I request changes?
Use the markup tool in the quote form to circle the aircraft, pin notes on the lettering and switch colors. The marked-up version attaches to your quote.
