NFPA's new limited edition lapel pin.

The National Flight Paramedics Association has released a new limited edition lapel pin! The pin was created in a quantity of only 300 pieces with each being individually numbered. The above image is the artwork for the 2003 design. The pin features IHC Life Flight of Salt Lake City performing a hoist mission with their Augusta helicopter. The current president of the NFPA is a flight paramedic with Life Flight. These pins were first sold at the 2003 CCTMC conference in Louisville, KY. This pin was designed entirely on a home PC with photo editing software. It is only the second industry pin to utilize an actual photo of an aircraft on the pin design. I do have a supply of these pins for sale.
ALL PROCEEDS BENEFIT THE NFPA!

This is the original artwork for the Albany Med FLIGHT 5 year pin released in 2001. The pin was produced in an edition of only 500 pins. To my knowledge, this is the first air medical pin that features an actual photo of the aircraft on the pin. It was entirely designed using photo-editing software.

Welcome to the industries original air medical pin trading website! I created this site 8 years ago to assist in people building their air medical pin collections. I have been trading air medical pins for the past 10 years and have acquired a collection of approximately 900 flight/transport program pins from 13 different countries. Unfortunately, there is always the risk of the unknown when trading via the internet. "Will this person send me the pins they promised?" I can assure you that anyone listed on my page has been an excellent source for trading. If they aren't, let me know.

Happy Trading!!!!....Jon

Wings of Mercy

The above pin is the oldest in my collection. It's condition and quality reflect that it probably dates from the mid to late 1940's. I'm not certain of the origin of the pin. I have uncovered references to "Wings of Mercy" regarding an early fixed wing medevac service in northern Canada. If you have any information about this pin, please e-mail me.

Interested in Air Medical Pins but don't have any for trade?
Check out the pins that I have for sale on eBay! PLEASE, only use this option if you have nothing for trade! I use Ebay to expand the hobby to those that don't otherwise have access to pins! I prefer to trade!

Click the below image to go to my EBAY page!

Another option for collecting pins if you have nothing to trade is to contact air medical programs directly and ask for one of their pins! Many programs will gladly send you one! A great resource for locating and contacting air medical programs can be found at WWW.FLIGTHWEB.COM

Any pins I have posted on Ebay have been acquired by trading with another collector! I would never contact an air medical program directly, request a pin and then post it on Ebay!
