aircommando130 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Coulson is really getting big in the fire bomber world. They had their former Navy C-130Q that was converted to a fire bomber here at Kirtland last year. Got a tour of it...very nice Herk on the inside. Had a former NASCAR hauler all painted up as their mobile parts shop. That was really nice too. The crew chief had been a MC-130E crew chief at Hurlburt Field. That MARS is a big airplane...like to see that finished! Jeff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepsGunsTanks Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) I fell in love with the Martin Mars the second I heard they existed. That they were kept flying as tankers is epic. These videos will give you an idea how huge these beasts are, and why they are not flying anymore, at least as firebombers. The logistical tail to keep them flying and just operate them is insane. The view count on these videos being under 1000 makes me really sad. Kermit Weeks is Awesome! Talk about Large Scale Planes! For a fun tour of these MONSTER planes, check these out.
