Default Martians - Mars 08.jpg (1/1)

But what a job they perform - not many aircraft can do what the Mars
does, and of those that can, not many can drop as much.




I know of at least one that can...........


Not really.

Although the one pictured has a great capacity, it has to return to a
runway, then go drop again. Turn around times of around 45 minutes, or
more. A CL-215 or 414 or a Mars can land on water, usually nearby in the
woodlands, then drop again. Turn around times less than 10 minutes usually,
and sometimes less than 2 minutes.
