    Default looking for a military helicopter

    I've been wanting to make a plaque for my brother-in-law who was in the Army as a helicopter mechanic over in Nam. Does any one have a pattern of a helicopter, I'd prefer something military but any chopper would work. Thanks

    Thanks for the input. I think I will leave it up to my brother-in-law, at least this gives him a choice.
