OPF,

Great photos. More please, particularly of the interior.

My son went to UVic and one day, many years ago now, he called me, very excited, and I could hear a radial engine drone in the background: "Dad, I'm watching a Mars drop water on a fire on the outskirts of Victoria. You won't believe how BIG it is!"

His comment is not surprising since the Mars' wingspan at 200' is four feet bigger than a 747-100. It's not common to see a 747-sized aircraft maneuvering at tree-top height.
