sikorskypilot Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 (edited) Well, some people in the industry may have heard of a new tank design for low clearance helicopters. Hear it is. Midwest Helicopter Airways in Willowbrook, IL is sporting for the 1st time a belly tank on a Sikorsky S-58T. The tank holds about 500gal and is equipped with 2 snorkel pumps. This thing is amazing. Test flights have been made and it has proven itself to be an essential device for forest fires. Hear are some pics.
