the ideal fire/water bomber?
"Bertie the Bunyip" wrote in message ... "Morgans" wrote in It can also refill on the ground with a hose and tanker. It can lift a full load off of a runway, 1200 gallons for a 215, 1400 gallons for a 415. I would have to do some searching to find out how much runway it would take, but it isn't much. Do they still make the -215 as the av book shows it having the PW R2800 recip engines- do they still make those or are they using a reman? Gotta be a lot more econmical at least from the fuel burn at low altitudes. Pat
