11 minute video
helo made in poland - engines made by GE in Boston / lynn - tank added
in colorado
lol - kid found the siren switch
other old planes buzzing around during the video
nice overview by 2 calfire employees
iirc the new helios cost $25M each - not cheap of course but they will
last 10 to 20 years
they just drop water now - no retardant
8 seats in rear
when dropping water they fly with 1 pilot + 1 captain + 1 crew chief
so I guess that means they can fly with a max of 7 ground crew members
/ helitac members
can fly litter patient also by changing seats
have some temporary seats in rear also
