I'm just happy Hawaii is being used. It was only a stupid political decision that let them go south, but hey, that's ok. They will always be from my hometown and have their home base here. They are the best!

Sorry to say but the BC government wouldn't pay to keep them so we now have them in California. Your loss our gain.

The DC-10 holds 12,000, the Mars 7200. The difference though is the DC-10 requires landing and fillup on the ground, where as the Martin can fill "on the fly" by going to a nearby lake/reservoir (or ocean) and scooping water.

So if you have a lake nearby, the Mars can dump way way more water thanks to turnaround time in a short period of even if an airport is right beside the fire for the DC-10 (which of course it never is)
