That is medium Helicopter bell212.Every size helicopter fly the proper sisze bambi bucket.You can adjust the volume of each bucket...fuel load and air temp are a big factor on load volume.Yes you can get a 800-900 gallon bucket for the chinook helicopters.Sunset...yeah you.lol.One gallons is 10 lbs times that buy 800 gallons...no 212 will lift that ...even on a cold winters day.
