Color of the new Aer Corps helicopters?

What is the color of the recently purchased Aer Corps helicopters, please? I would prefer the Federal Standard number, but to be honest, whatever is suitable would help.

Any help greatly appreciated.

In February issue of Scale Aircraft Modelling, where is article about IAC EC 135, this colour is stated as Matt Olive Green /Humbrol 116/...
But no FS or RAL or any other number

Hey FiSe:
Thanks for the reply. I have a cross-reference chart for LifeColor paints that should help. Thanks for the info.

Hi Lads,
I believe Hu 116 equates with FS 34079 or RLM 71 although another reference I came across had suggested Green RAL 6031 which equates with FS 34094.This colour, called Bronze Green, has been suggested as being 6 parts Hu 116, 1 part Hu 95 (discontinued) and 2 parts Hu 80.
The above data from a number of websites including www.ipmsstockholm.org which is most useful.
Hope this is of assistance although I must admit that I still have the 1/32 kit awaiting construction (and painting) so cant advise what looks the best as of yet.
