Thought that some of you may enjoy watching these water bombers in action. Sure not gentle with the controls. :) Yikes!

CVA's freeware DC-4s with CVA liveries are capable of doing that. All you have to do is to transfer CVA liveries from CVA's freeware DC-4 cargo plane to freeware DC-4 forest fire fighting water bombers. You can ask Cal Jordan the director of fleet to do that and upload it to CVA official fleet download center.

That is why I asked any talented programmer to rebuild and correct FSX default CYCH scenery (see my other post) so that I can use it for future events probably this summer where forest fire problem can happen. CYCH is one of MAJOR bases for water bomber planes.

She's Canadian built...it'll take it! I have had the pleasure of working on those CL415s. If you get a chance to look at one close up you will find that it is just a whole bunch of rivets flying in formation. :shock:

Not one of the safest flying jobs. A great video.
