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.
Slowed the shutter speed down to 1/125 and panned for this capture of the passing Baltimore Police helicopter. Liked the results with the motion in the blades.
When there is a bad accident or someone is very sick out here in the desert Mercy Air comes out to pick them up and transport them to the hospital. When they come out here they land on the baseball field that is right next door to my house.
Right by the shores of the Oslofjord the summer house is without access by a road and some equipment was needed and could only by delivered by helicopter (Helitrans - Norway).
This load was app. 1000kg.
While out looking for osprey and hawks ... the Maryland State Police helicopter came towards my position ... adjusted the shutter speed and aperture to get the slower speed on the rotors.
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.
A Hughes 369D type 550 I am led to believe and it was first registered in 1982 !!
This is a massively rushed shot as in the middle of doing something else I heard the helicopter starting up and realised it was in the garden of a house on the other side of the nearby railway line - there are some pretty big houses over there !! Anyway , but the time I had got outside and spotted where it was going to appear it left little or no time to get anything , once above the tree line there was only seconds and it was behind a neighbours roof and it was away !!
Therefore , not as crisp a shot as I would like . I think my panning needs a lot more practice and for rapid shots I think I prefer the 70 - 300mm Canon lens as it is very quick focussing and a good all round lens , just a bit short of reach compared to the !00 - 400mm Sigma used here ( because that was the lens on the camera !! ) .
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.

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.

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.

Shot from the ground laying on my back as the pilot took passes over me.
Fairly dangerous as they were low to the ground and the pilot was being repeatedly strobed in the face.

Pocket Wizard triggered SB-800 on the dash gelled 1 CTB and another behind the pilot gelled 1 CTO.
I kinda hate this one just because it shows me how sharp the others aren't. It was tough because you have to shoot at 1/50th - 1/100th to get good rotor blur. And they were moving fast...
I like how this looks air-to-air. It's not. Perry just dropped the nose and did some low, fast fly-bys, which made it look as if we were up there with him because there is no reference point to reveal the dipped nose.

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 ;-)
