Roderick Vargas Air Care team EC-135


Recommended Posts

Kudos to Roderick for the excellent EC-135. Wonderful paint job you have done.I was very pleasantly surprised to see this model. Bit of history on the program and N135AN.

I was the original mechanic for the Air Care Team (ACT) in Orlando when the program started up in 1984. We operated a single BO-105 there first, N2785X. Upgraded to a single BK-117B-1 in 1991, N170MC. Was still there last I knew. The program expanded in the early 2000's to add 2 more heli's, initially BK-117's as well. I left the program in 1997 to work with Medflight of Ohio, but later was the maintenance manager for Air Care Team for a few years, 2008 - 2011. N135AN was the EC-135 that operated from Medflight 2 in Marysville, OH, one of Medflight of Ohio's 6 bases. I have many man hours working on that bird. It transferred from Ohio to Orlando after 2011.

just had to comment on the build, as it was great to see!

Thanks Roderick.
