Búsqueda y Salvamento (SAR, del inglés Search and Rescue) es un servicio para organizar y dirigir operaciones de búsqueda y salvamento derivados de accidentes aéreos o catástrofes naturales fundamentalmente dentro del espacio aéreo español.
Desde 1956 lo realiza el Ejército del Aire de España cooperando con otros organismos de seguridad y emergencias en función de acuerdos internacionales sobre navegación aérea de carácter civil. Actualmente está compuesto por la Jefatura de Búsqueda y Salvamento, tres RCC (del inglés Rescue Coordination Center), ubicados en las Bases Aéreas de Madrid, Baleares y Canarias, además de tres escuadrones, el 801, 802 y 803 del Ejército del Aire.
Dispone entre otros medios de helicópteros Eurocopter AS 332 Super Puma y Aérospatiale SA 330 Puma, además de aviones, de los cuales actualmente está en servicio el modelo CASA CN-235 100M VIGMA, habiendo contado previamente con aeronaves del tipo Grumman HU 16 Albatross, CASA C 212 Aviocar y Fokker F-27 200 MAR.

Great place to photograph helicopters, they teach pilots how to fly there, so one taking off & landing all day
Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron FOUR ZERO (HSM 40)
Just a shot of a helicopter just taken off from a garden over on the other side of the railway line - they do have big gardens over there . It always strikes me how helicopters dip or lean over to one side when taking off or landing .
Grab shot having just heard it start up and luckily the camera with the telephoto is kept handy for diving out to capture aircraft going over that are of interest . Trouble is when the Spitfire goes over it has gone by the time I get outside - it ofen passes over on it's way to Blackbushe or Kemble .
I really hope the name is not a copyright infringement, but this pun is totally intended.
The model has openable cockpit, openable (and huge) side hatches and rear ramp, rotatable wings with rotatable propellers and (sadly) non-folding landing gear. Also there's a turret on its underside, so it is a legit flying tank.
A rather new MH-47G sits in an LZ in Colorado. The number in the window was used for an exercise and is merely masking tape.

Air to air shot of Airbus Helicopters ACH160 with some of London's most iconic buildings providing a great backdrop.
Shooting over the city comes with various restrictions, we were only able to come this far down the river on 2 occasions because of traffic on approach to London City airport, so you can have the best laid plans and briefs but ultimately have to adapt in the air.

Snapped this picture on vacation at Emerald Isle NC. Emerald Isle is about 20 miles north of Camp Lajune, one of two Marine training facilities for marine recruits. The helicopter was about 200 feet directly above the shoreline.
Slowed the shutter speed here to 1/100th of a second to keep the rotors in motion as the helicopter flew by. Just need to keep a steady hand on the long lens at this slow a shutter speed. The image stabilizer at this speed helps a lot too.
Royal Navy Sea King Mk7 ZE422 from 854 Sqn based at RNAS Culdrose on approach to RAF Lossiemouth to participate in Ex Joint Warrior 16/2. This aircraft was built in 1986 so celebrates 30 years this year and is part of the Airborne surveillance and control fleet of Sea Kings.
recently I needed a helicopter as a birthday present. luckily the Italian convention was just a week before my deadline, there I met Gerwin Sturm and Gerwin can design basically anything you ask him for. he's a wonder :-))
so he whipped up this cute little helicopter and taught it to me. For the rendition in this photo I glued red tissue paper onto the silver side of a 35cm of foil paper. it folded like a charm ;-)
