this a short video of Coulson's new airtanker 131 (N130FF)..if you are not familure,Coulson is the company who flew the Martin Mar's airtanker,which is now off contract,seems forever,glad i got to see it in action more than once..
T130 has a 3500 gallon gravity feed tank ,it looks like this tanking system will be used in the ex-USCG C-130H's which will be on-contract in 2014.well atleast in service in 2014,i dont think there will be a contract as it appears they C130H's will be owned by the USFS,which i dont think is right,they put Aero Union out of business and now they are going into the airtanker business?..ive said this before,but the USFS pulled a fast one on Norm,made him seem to be a bad guy when in fact he did everything correctly,,they just played "paperwork" games until the FAA yanked the cards and grounded them....im still angry over it...and Norm could careless ,hes retired again and traveling with his wife.......sigh..
