Remarks: Tanker 12 just finishing the turn to final well after the sun has set while fighting the "Bain Street" Fire to south of Reno. Note the blue flame coming from the exhaust of each engine and the American Flag in the nose.
Remarks: A pair of RNZAF P-3K 'Maritime Patrol Aircraft' (in original grey/white paint scheme) overfly RAAF Fairbairn during the RAAF's 50th Anniversary Air Display in Canberra in 1971. Aircraft NZ4202 leads NZ4201 in this rare formation photo. Both aircraft entered service in 1966, and NZ4201 was painted to commemorate 40 years service in 2006. The RAAF was operating P-3B Orions in 1971, and Canada had Argus Maritime Aircraft then. Rare Low Res 38 year old photo. Apologies for low quality.
Remarks: "Tanker One-Two" fires up #2 engine in a cloud of smoke, preparing for departure for the Cedar City, Utah, tanker base. Thanks to the crew for the tour of this immaculate aircraft!
