jimbo2181 Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 I know some of you are great at digging up old hard to find helicopters. I am looking for a picture of a MD500 doing EMS. I know it has been done I just can' find proof for my buddy. To make it trickier it has to be an internal stretcher. Not the 500MG version. Thanks, Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 (edited) Not a true EMS ship, but transported patients as a CA Title 22 rescue operator. Sorry for the quality, it’s a digital photo of an old wall poster. Edited October 1, 2020 by Spike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldy Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Not a true EMS ship, but transported patients as a CA Title 22 rescue operator. Sorry for the quality, it’s a digital photo of an old wall poster. I remember LASD had a 500 with the big bubble windows so they could fit a backboard across the backseat. Good thing they never had to transport me..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copter doctor Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 I found these in an old MD brochure from the 90's. I took the pics with my phone so I hope they work out. Apparently it was possible to get a dual litter kit where the litters fit lenthwise in the cabin. Hope it helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Eagle Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 LACSD had a 500-C with the bubble rear doors. Some of you may remember it from the old TV series "240 Robert". I think that was their actual helicopter(?).See here. I also have an old 500-D sales manual from 78' showing various actual LE 500's with the rescue configuration.
