By now, I'm sure many of you have heard of the new Evergreen Super Tanker. It is a Boeing 747 modified to fight fires. It can carry up to 20, 000 gallons of water. I don't believe that there is an FS version available yet. All it requires is a repaint of the Stock Boeing 747 and a fire retardant effect placed correctly. Can someone do it? FSX please!

Cool

I'm pretty sure someone on SimV might have been making one, but I can't remember who.

I did some smoke effects for one, but not a repaint.  There's a thread in the main FSX topic that by the fellow who's doing that.  I posted the [smokesystem] code in that topic.  It's not perfect, and can probably use more tweaking, and uses (I believe) FSX stock red smoke effect

I just found an Evergreen International Boeing 747-200c over at FSDome.  (direct download link:: http://www.fsdome.com/php-bin/download.php?url=dXBsb2FkczA5L2p1bC83NDJldmkuemlw&... )



I have a fire retardant effect in my system, so give me till Monday and whoever wants it, I will send you the aircraft.cfg entries for the FX_FireRetardant ... and the actual effect.
