These Oz Hueys(4 I think?) were painted red for a tour of duty with the Peace Monitoring Group, Bougainville, 04/98 to 07/01. Cheers Chris Chris or anyone who knows can please confirm the color of the blade,tail and main rotor for those Hueys? I am doing one... but can see fin they were black / green/ all black / both/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devo Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 (edited) G'day I saw olive drab on top and black underneath main rotors. Some had white tail rotors with black stripes. The helo's sure weren't painted red, might look red in a certain light but trust me, they were like an International orange colour. I was there during OP BELISI in 1997,1998 & 1999, aboard HMAS Tobruk LSH 50. Edited September 23, 2018 by Devo typo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
