DC-10 Firebomber arrives in Melbourne

Good news, hope it is successfull.

If this summer turns out to be anything like the last it’ll certainly clock up some hours

Nope, there’s two DC-10s – tanker 910 and tanker 911Andy

Nobody told me!:o

Its an air show..not an airline. :rolleyes:

I knew I’d heard of it somewhere before:cool: They should use the A380 for firebombing. You can put plenty of water in that huh?:D

AeroIndia has a 747 firebomber?

There is only one 747 and one DC-10 fire bomber. (so far);)

would this be the one that hit turbulence and struck a few tree’s sometime?

Edit: it would 😉

Probably not. The one that struck trees was a DC-10-10, N450AX, tanker 910…

There are now more than one DC-10 waterbomber. Thr DC-10-30 is N17085, tanker 911.

I think Kabit is correct looking at the AeroIndia 2009 AIR SHOW!;)

I’m out of touch with firebombing, how many 747 bombers are there?

Good news, hope it is successfull.
