Anyone know what's the big yellow, multi-engine A/C which sits near the threshold of RWY28R?

Cheers!

Haven't been at AF for about 12 months, but if it has a number on the tail and or big round engines, then it's probably Randall McFarlane's A-26. I believe it was called 'the invader'. It's a WW2 bomber that has been converted to a firebomber, now out of service. The US Forestry Department moved towards operators who had turbine fleet.

Loved the movie 'always' had these old girls and the PBY's in it
