JohnNoack Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 Hi all: I'm writing the IPMS/USA review for Gallery Models' 1/48 VH-34D Marine One. There are no interior color callouts for the presidential cabin. I found one color photo online (see attachment) of JFK boarding Marine One that shows a light color interior, darker floor, and some funky 60's era window curtains. Does anyone have access to some interior shots of this first version of Marine One? My online search has been less than successful. Thanks. John Noack IPMS/USA Life Member 23017
Spruemeister Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 (edited) There is a VH-34D in the museum at Ft. Rucker, but I don't know if it was a Presidential ttransport. I believe the interior is set up the same though. Rick L. Edited March 11, 2015 by Spruemeister
PeteJ Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 When searching, keep in mind that Marine 1 is a not a helicopter it is a call sign. Any Marine helo with the president on board is Marine 1.
JohnNoack Posted March 11, 2015 Author Report Posted March 11, 2015 Yes, understood, that's why I specified a VH-34D in the post. But thanks.
Spruemeister Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 Here are some pictures of the VH-34 at Ft. Rucker sent to me by a friend on the scene. Photos via IPMS member Kevin Malloy. Hope they help. Rick L.
