We have received two reports about a new CL-415 that has been at Winnipeg (CYWG) for the last several days. It is sporting an Aero-Flite logo and a registration number of C-GUZF. This is apparently the aircraft purchased by TENAX Aerospace which will be leased to Aero-Flite, the company that recently received a five-year contract from the U.S. Forest Service for a CL-415 water-scooping air tanker. We think this is designated Tanker 260.
Thanks go out to Mike and Barry
Not to nit-pick, but Winnipeg (and it’s airport) is definitely in Manitoba. It is in fact the provinces capitol.
It also has the Stars & Stripes painted high on the tail. That sucker is definitely headed south.
Wish Matt Z.& Co. Well on this. Nice to see a NEW Airtanker.. Faster, please…
Tanker 260 arrived Abbotsford yesterday at 3:41 PST.
