A feast for the eyes, presented by this pair of hi-vis Hercules air tankers. Grounded in 2003 following the disaster of Tanker 130 in 2002, they could only fight fires again if certainty about their remaining service life would be established. Eventually both went to International Air Response as spares sources. This photo is copyright © Erik Sleutelberg, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
