Well. It seems Wysiwyg got it all wrong after all. His “glider with 5 APU’s” has finally become an export success.

LOL! 😀

Minden Air are testing a BAe146 this coming week as a potential future fire bomber – the US Forestry Service has deemed that all air tankers are turbine powered by 2008, and the 146 is seen as a suitable candidate – good low speed handling, manouevreable (sp?!), and fairly easy to maintain! 😮

Best thing – at least then passengers won’t have the misery of them anymore! :p
