The post may be a joke but its also on Fire Aviation?
Conair tried using F27 Fire Bombers in France. They were short lived so I assume they were not a great success as they then moved on to CV580s.
However if F50s are tried by Alliance or anyone else the development would not be to hard from F27 to F50 if used the Conair design?
Conair and others seem to like the BAE146 into the future. Conair are also happy with Dash 8s.
