CN 7184 D-HIMA
By Nicola_M in Helicopters
BK117 B-1 CN 7184 D-HIMA
This aircraft was the 184th machine off the Donauworth production line and has the distinction of being the most-displayed factory machine, being shown at Farnborough in 1990, 1992 and 1994. Although it is in a very plain paintscheme, I have included it because it is the only example I have found displaying the MBB Aerospace logo.
Today it is one of the ADAC fleet.
UPDATE: 24 May 2011, Livery png now modified so that bear paws and wire cutters are now correctly omitted for this particular aircraft. For convenience you can load up the Radome or Non-Radome BK117 but it will be the same aircraft now which will show radome only.

CN 7007 D-HBUR
By Nicola_M in Helicopters
BK117 C-1 CN 7007 D-HBUR
This aircraft was the 7th machine off the Donauworth production line, and was immediately upgraded to B-1 status and registered as D-HBKI and then D-HXXL (http://forums.x-pilo...hp?topic=2294.0). It has had a chequered history, having been registered since in France and Mexico, before being leased into the SAR market in Italy.
It got its unique paint scheme after Glasurit commissioned celebrated German painter/designer Walter Maurer in 2000 to come up with the design it now wears, which he named "Flying Colors."
http://www.surfacefi...-Paints-to-0001
Interestingly, 7007 was the C-1 testbed, fitted with the new Turbomeca Arriel-1-E turbine on 6th April 1990, going on to icing tests in Vienna in February/March 1991, and high temperature testing in July 1991, the LBA C-1 Type Certification being awarded on the 20th October 1992.
Updated 01Jun11 - added updated interior, bear paws removed.
Updated 29Oct11 - corrected an error on the top and bottom edges of the inner fin surfaces.

CN 7047 D-HBMV
By Nicola_M in Helicopters
BK117 A-1 CN 7047 D-HBMV
This aircraft was the 47th machine off the Donauworth production line in 1984 and was pressed into service as another factory demonstrator, exhibited at the Paris Air Show at Le Bourget on 11th June 1987. Conveniently, it was displayed in the same colour scheme that the BK117 EMS mock-up was displayed in at the same airshow just six years earlier.
UPDATE: 24 May 2011, Livery png now modified so that bear paws are now correctly omitted for this particular aircraft. For convenience you can load up the Radome or Non-Radome BK117 but it will be the same aircraft now with the bear paws deleted.

CN 7123 LifeAir #2

Repaint for Nils Danielsson's excellent payware MBB BK-117.
Simply unzip the file "CN 7123 LifeAir 2" into your xplane/aircraft/helicopters/bk117/liveries folder.
This is the livery of N399MA c/n 7123, the 123rd machine off the Donauworth production line in 1987.
It began life as Life Air One, based at Schumpert Medical Center, Shreveport, Louisiana from 1987-1993 (see below).
On November 15, 1993, Life Air Rescue was created by the merging of Schumpert's Life Air One, and Willis-Knighton's Air Rescue, and the old Life Air 1 got a repaint in the colours they still use today.
This aircraft operated from 1993 until 1997 in the livery you see here, when it was replaced by the now-familiar EC-135, and is now N117CH, the Atlanta Children's Healthcare helo.
Use with the NON-Radome version, bear paws are switched off.

D-NEUE
By Nicola_M in Helicopters
Fictional livery D-NEUE
This is a fictional livery I created as my personal livery, but I wasn't happy with it and was going to consign it to the "never used" folder. As at least one person likes it, I thought I'd post it up instead.

CN 7504 D-HECA
By Nicola_M in Helicopters
BK117 livery C-1 CN 7504 D-HECA - EXCLUSIVE TO X-PILOT.COM
Repaint for Nils Danielsson's excellent payware MBB BK-117.
Simply unzip the file "CN 7504 D-HECA" into your xplane/aircraft/helicopters/bk117/liveries folder.
This is the livery of 7504 D-HECA, a 1993 C-1. It had this same livery when it was re-registered D-HOTZ and used in SAR, before being painted white and registered I-BKBS in 2003.
Its last registration showed it as G-RESC, one of the East Anglian Air Ambulance fleet. However in February 2011 Sterling Aviation were unable to continue leasing 7504 and another BK117 to EAAA so the contract ceased.
7504 is currently for sale in Ohio http://www.aviationb...comp_id=141512.
(Bond Air Services have since offered EAAA two Bo-105s instead until they take delivery of one EC135 P2 in December 2011 and an EC135 T2e in July 2012. In December 2013 they will take on an EC145 T2, thus returning to the BK117 lineage).

Scotrun BK
By Nicola_M in Helicopters
BK117 livery SCOTRUN BK117 - EXCLUSIVE TO X-PILOT.COM
Repaint for Nils Danielsson's excellent payware MBB BK-117.
Simply unzip the file "SCOTRUN BK" into your xplane/aircraft/helicopters/bk117/liveries folder.
***Use with Radome model.***
On route 611 in Scotrun, Pennsylvania, there is a roadside takeaway called Eats & Sweets. In the grounds there is a derelict BK117 which has been used as part of a children's swing. Sadly, there is nothing to identify the helicopter but this livery shows how it would have looked from new.
Of note is a small decal on its flank "Space Ship BK117." In the mid-80s MBB advertised the BK117 as the "Space Ship," ie the ship with plenty of interior space. Eurocopter inform me that such a decal was not an official item and was likely made by the US dealership in Westchester when the helicopter was sold.
