Big changes over the years at Conair. No more piston powered aircraft , all turbines now, looked at their website last week and they have quite a few Q400s now, some have been converted to water bombers and some are still being converted, luckily their are a lot of older Q400s around.

I think the Q400 is a very capable air tanker.

@@VMCAviationVideos They are, I was just watching the Bastille Day Parade on July 14th from Paris and the French air fire fighters are using them along side the CL-415 air tankers.

I wonder how much water does the Q400 haul?

[@davidingibergsson1845]

Just over 10000 liters or 2650 usg.
