C-GKUG demonstrating the advantages of large air tankers to Australian forest fire authorities in 1984. At the time there was a lot of resistance to heavy tankers, the preference being swarms of cropdusters and helicopters. However large tankers, up to DC-10 size, are now part of the air assets assembled for annual fire season. They are chartered from US and Canadian operators.
