A380 ;-))

The hangar for my day job is close by the DC-10 bomber. It hauls a
huge load of retardant, and can make about 1 drop an hour.

OTOH, it limped back to the airport a few months ago after it hit some
trees with a wingtip. Impressive that it was able to survive the hit,
not so impressive that it hit to begin with.

That's the one I saw on TV.
A really impressive water dump..
But at the time I thought my eyes were deceiving me

There's a 747-200 bomber, too, but I don't know if anyone is using it.

Last I heard the guy that was doing it was giving up on it as not
economically viable.
