Bill,

How about a KC-2?


Makes some sense to me.

Develop a palletized rig (hose reel mechanism, pumps, plumbing, and tankage) that you roll into a "de-seated" C-2 hull. Open the rear barn door and let the hose flail.

A real hillbilly rig, though.


Concur. But sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do.

Not that I care (I'm retired and thank God I don't have to do those
damn "Duty Sponge" sorties...)

But, why not extend the KS-3's a bit more???
Regards,
