Tanker 911 (N17085) dropping retardant on the Bumble Bee Fire on 8/7/20. She came in to assist her sister ship Tanker 912; 911 flew all the way to just north of Phoenix, Arizona, from the USFS air tanker base at Santa Maria (KSMX), California.
The DC-10 VLAT (Very Large Air Tanker) is a concept developed by 10 Tanker Air Carrier out of Albuquerque, New Mexico; they studied airframes to use as next generation aerial firefighting platforms and settled on the DC-10, a wide-body long-range airliner that was being phased out of use for passenger and freight hauling. The first DC-10 VLAT was certified for use in 2006.
Today, 10 Tanker operates 4 DC 10-30 aircraft: Tankers 910, 911, 912, and 914. All four are former passenger or freight carriers that have been converted to haul 12,000 US Gallons of retardant or water in 3 tanks mounted below the fuselage on the aircraft's centerline. The tanks are controlled by the aircraft's flight engineer; the tanks can drop all 12,000 gallons in about 8 seconds and lay a line about a mile long. They can also do several smaller drops rather than one large drop.
Tanker 911, pictured here, is 45 years old as of 2020. She was originally delivered to Finnair in 1975; she also served Nigeria Airways, Air Liberté (France), Continental Airlines, and Omni Air International before being delivered to 10 Tanker in 2007 for conversion to aerial firefighting.
