This is a Canadian Coast Guard livery for Taog's Alouette III. (C-FCAX Current livery on wheels)
Updated for Version 1.3 of Taog's Hangar's Alouette III.
A little C-FCAX history found on the web. (Please feel free to correct me where I have made errors.)
C-FCAX was manufactured in June, 1965 and first flown as F-WKQI, by Aerospatiale in Marignane, France.
On July 11, 1966, the Canadian Department of Transport received the first SA316B Alouette III, Registered now as C-FCAX, with two more aircraft delivered in 1967. Now fitted with permanent floats, they were deployed from Quebec City to maintain maritime navigation aids and operated from ice breakers. All three were transferred to Victoria airport, CYYJ in the late 1960s, delivered to the Canadian Coast Guard and used on the Pacific Coast to support remote lighthouses and the Western Arctic, NWT. She served the Guard for 20 years until replaced by new MBB B0105's in the 1980's. Transport Canada oprated her last flight on Jan 30, 1987 for the Canadian Coast Guard from Parksville to CYYJ in Victoria. Pilot: Jones.
In 1989, Department of Transport Canada donated C-FCAX to British Columbia Institute of Technology as a ground instructional airframe.
Later, the airframe was donated to the British Columbia Aviation Museum at CYYJ, Victoria airport.

This is a Canadian Coast Guard Alouette III livery for Taog's Hangar's fantastic model and using his paint kit.
Done with permission from Taog's Hangar.
It was mostly done "old school" with GIMP and using Blender to find components.
I found a few reference photos to use on the internet. Requires Taog's Hangar's Alouette III
I have corrected a change that was made to the reg number placement that was done post retirement.
This is more or less how she appears now.
Here she is, warts and all.
