Aerialresponder, Your O-2 would be fine as a fire fighter. The California Department of Forestry has (had?) several in their fleet.
By freighter, I meant the mom and pop type operations that can barely afford the upkeep on their plane. I've seen several DC-3s' and Twin Beeches operated this way. I don't want to see any multi-trillion dollar companies. They get enough free promo time from other sources.
By the same token, NO warbirds. Yes they are civilian operated, but that would defeat the purpose of this build.
I've given enough lead in time on this for people to find a kit (I hope) and four months should be enough time to build one or several and still give people time to work on other projects.
