There are some more Canadair water bombers.

The CL-415 is at:

The CL-215

They work fairly well.

Have fun Smile

The best CL-415 I have seen so far is at Abacus and costs $10 - it is a 'Fly before you Buy Premier Collection' a/c - you can use it for a fixed period and then it is disabled.
Has all the frills - pick up water, drop water, etc and all controlled from the panel. Definitely for FS2004.
Might be worth a look.

k i've got the Abacus CL-415 trial. Now all i need are some fires to fight. What would be cool is if a thunderstorm\lighting strike would set one ablaze. If there is any scenery out there for this it'd be cool.

Thanx and Off Topic!

BTW, Bunger, is that Avatar a Wild Fire Twin Otter? Is there one for download for FS?
Ok really really!! Off Topic!

The Avatar is from the aircraft I used to maintain, for the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources.

You can find the Twin Otter at

I don't think it picks up water.
