In Response To: Re: A Fistful of Arrows (pages 21-23) *IMGs* (SonofMacPhisto)


: It gave me a nice little reminder of the NMPD Pelican in ODST, in that, it
: was another civil service version of the craft. You could probably fit
: quite a bit of water in one of those, especially with additional external
: tanks. It'd be similar to those planes they use for forest fires, but
: tooled towards the realities of dense, futuristic construction techniques.

And cue =D

That IL-76 is actually only about 35% larger than a Pelican, which itself is certainly a lot bigger than most aircraft used for the role today, with the exception of a handfull of 'super' water bombers.

Given that its a military base, I'd still expect it to be a military Pelican, even if its serving in an firefighting role. Most forces have their own firefighting services.
Could be some bright red civil firefighting Pelicans out there too though!
