An Italiari Super Puma, This was used by ERA Helicopters as Type ! Fire Fighting Helicopter on an US Forest Service Fire. It out of the box except for the paint scheme and decals. The Company excets' liked it.

Very nice, I like the ERA 212 you did too. I haven't run across the Super Puma on the fireline yet, should be interesting. I miss the tankers being around as much as in the old days (what 3 years ago?) but it does seem to have brought more diversity of airframes into the roterwing side.

I have to say your helicopter builds got me interested in aircraft again, I started a Ford Tri-motor jump ship the other night, I don't have alot to go on except for two old smokejumper photos with bits of the aircraft in the background, combined with more current smokejumper aircraft, then again since there isn't much to go on it will be hard for anyone to say I did it wrong I may get my Allouette 3 finished up too.
