Looking for pics of Westpac Rescue AS355 VH-HRT

Hi guys, I am interested in trying to find some good pics of the Westpac Rescue AS355 and AS350 that operated out of Sydney in the late 80 early 90s, this is for a modelling project I am working on. I was good friends with a couple of pilots, Dan Tyler and Alain Le Lec RIP, but can't find any pics anywhere. I have contacted Westpac Lifesaver etc on Facebook and via website no replies. Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

A92

I used to have the book "helicopter rescue" by Ken Wishaw but its packed away in boxes somewhere. There are plenty of pics of the squirrels in there.

Thanks gents, I have explored all avenues google etc, with next to nil results; but I did get a msg from Dan Tyler and he has given me a few options. Belly I have that book also and I even got in touch with Dr Wishaw but he had no pics either.

Cheers A92

VH-SFD was the Adelaide based helicopter - and has different branding and configuration to the Sydney Choppers of the 90's. I dont think this is going to be helpful for his purpose.
