947

[smith]

Driving past PIK last week I saw a 747 200, with 947 on the tail in red and blue livery. Any idea what it was/is?

It's a conversion that drops a heap of water all over forest fires and the like...

evergreen are regular visitors to PIK, wonder why it was there? On route to Greece maybe?

I think the fires in Greece are just about over now.....the tanker fit is a `quick change fit` when required the 747 reverts to normal freighter ops
