Scrap / Parts from old MedEvac Aircraft

Hey everyone,

Hoping you can all help a friendly Canadian - I work with an aeromedical company up here and we're trying to do a little historical thing with some early military medevac aircraft (Bell H-13 Sioux, Bell UH-1s etc. etc.) but we aren't looking to buy whole aircraft. We'd be happy with a few miscellaneous parts, or even scrap - the historical authenticity is the important thing for us.

I've had no luck elsewhere on the internet, and you all seem like experts, so... What can I do? Does anybody know where we purchase stuff like this?

I've already checked out all the various online government auction sites and the like - doesn't really seem to be anything from that role or era there.

Thanks in advance!

Choppers only?

Brown helicopters in TX, Garlick in Montana, if he's still in business, etc. Google the parts, even try ebay, you'd be supprised. H-13 will be difficult, not many left. Since you're in Canada, you may have to find someone with an export license, even for old parts.

Good luck

Nope, fixed-wing would be alright as well.
