Some more inspiration from me, several of my Rotodyne profiles were of SAR types.  They're a little better than my first attempts, I've tweaked them a bit:


Kaman Rotodyne CV-5B, US Coast Guard


Westland Rotodyne ASR.4, 'E' Flight, 202 Sqn RAF


Kaman CV-5B, US Navy


Kaman CV-5D, US Air Force Reserve CSAR


Westland Rotodyne C.1, Royal Canadian Air Force


Westland Rotodyne C.60, Gendarmerie Nationale.  Not sure if this counts, as I don't think the Gendarmerie have a SAR role as such, but the search role is there (if more for people that don't want to be found!), as well as rescue support in times of crisis.

That's all I can find for now (sleepy).  Add more as the week goes on, including pics of actual Coastie/SAR/CSAR aircraft.
