I believe the primary use for the tank on the bottom is to re-stock lakes with fish. They load the tanks up with fry and dump them into lakes. The tanks are also used for fire suppresion.

Adam Oke, lovely colours and pics! My fave is the last one.

But WileyCoyote, your pics are amazing! Love the contrast of white snow with the aircraft and the tundra landscape. Where was this?

That's a helluva nice aircraft Adam, and their fabric job is awesome if you look closely. I want one!

The picture is too good to be true; some chopper pilots got way too much time on their hands.
