Is it possible to fly 12 hours in a normally configured A/C in Canada. This one brings on new appreciation on how big the country is. I miss her!

On the west coast 12 hours is about 30 landings.

30? is that it?
I did 106 in 10.6 this summer (including 4 hours of transit time..)

Is that a Super DC3? That tail looks pretty square. Last time I saw one it was in Millard livery.

Would love to get a close look!

Thanks for posting the picture!

That was a super 3! I do believe it now resides in Alaska...

Ha! That would be touch and go's. I have to dock and reload each time. Seriously though, thats a fast turn around time on a fire.

and Rowdy is correct. She is working out of Anchorage. We saw her there last fall...

That was GKG, and she was an ex Millard machine. Borek picked her up in 1994.
