Someone ought to call Coulson Aviation. There are two Martin Mars sitting around up here with nothing to do. One ready to go with the most up-to-date navigation and flight control technology and another sitting on the hard, but could be brought into service.
Heck, maybe you can even buy the damn things as they put out fires much too fast for Canada.
You see up here we know there's a fortune to be made fighting forest fires, all on the taxpayer's tab, so big planes which put out fires quickly get in the way of maximum profitability for fire-fighting companies, and funnily enough, quite a few of those are not Canadian owned.
Just follow the money!
On the other hand they had one Mars all painted up in USN colours ready to go to a Museum in the USAwhen the federales intervened and said it couldn't be exported because it was a cultural asset or some such nonsense. I guess the plan is to gradually bankrupt Coulson by starving the company for work while forcing them to pay to maintain and store the planes.
