	103 Search and Rescue Squadron CFAC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Cormorant routinely conducts rescues that would have been impossible for its predecessor, the CH-113 Labrador.
		The Squadron is responsible for a massive area, covering the lower Arctic, the Maritimes, Newfoundland and Labrador and all offshore waters in the region.
		Considering that the number of SAR cases in the Newfoundland Region, which are actual distress cases, is twice the national average, 103 Squadron is kept very busy.

	Boeing Vertol CH-113 Labrador Pictures
		Note the sign in the foreground warning of ``Explosives.'' This particular Labrador was in the hanger, readied for immediate SAR scramble, fully `armed' with flares (all pyrotechnics are regarded as ``explosives'').
		For some reason, the `Labrador' has it located higher on the fuselage.
		For the modeller: note the rotors, matt black, both side with a black leading edge extending onto the yellow tip (hubs are gloss black); the position of the two 'holes', on either side (cooling of the electronics, I believe); the plan-view shape of the nose radome (not circular) and the double retractable landing lights.

	A Cormorant by any other name
		The CH-113 Labrador, a twin-rotored helicopter designed in the mid-1950s, was purchased to provide for Search-and-Rescue (SAR) functions; and after 40 years (and the saving of countless lives), it was long been clear that a replacement was overdue.
		While the Sea Kings and Labradors can point to a legacy of heroic rescues and arduous unsung service in difficult circumstances… the same cannot be said of the Prime Minister who treated them and their crews with such contempt.
		Public outcry for new helicopters increased with every new crash of the aging Sea Kings, and every tardy Labrador rescue, and — without acknowledging that a mistake had been made — the search for a replacement began anew.

		"Labrador 11301 will serve as a reminder to Canadians of the hundreds of lives saved and people rescued, often in near- impossible conditions."

		My CH-113 Labrador conversion, is based on one of their kits, the KV-107-II-5, although their -3 would have done just as well.
		The whole thing got a wash of black Tempra paint (that powdered paint you used in grade school) that's available in art supply stores, to give it both, that dirty appearance common to the CAF's overworked Labrador, and to highlight the panel lines.
		The dashed panel outlines came from two sources - the separator between subjects, on some Aeromaster Decal sheets (specifically their Spitfire Mk.XIV) and a spare sheet from the Matchbox DHC Twin Otter.

		All six Labradors started together and taxied to the runway, accompanied by one Cormorant which supported the Wg photographers.
		However, knowing that not all of you Labrador veterans and "fans" could have participated with us in executing these flights, I am quite confident that these pictures will probably awake in you the same emotions and "goosebumps" we all felt that day.
		After having "probed" all the available historical corporate knowledge at large, we are quite confident in stating that this has been the first opportunity ever where 6 Labradors found themselves in one location in flyable status.

		During our flights with 442, it still operated the CH-113 Labrador (KV-107) wich is now replaced.
		The entire crew takes their position and the Labrador is lowered into a clearing in the woods.
		This is a risky operation as the big helicopter can strike a tree or hit loose branches being thrown in to the air by the rotor blades.
