    Aerial Fire Suppression

    Aerial Fire Suppression

    The S-58T carries the largest bucket of any helicopter in the medium class (420 gals vs. 325 for the Bell 212). It can fly faster and outperform the 212 at high density altitudes by a wide margin... sometimes double the load per turn. The 'T' has a larger internal capacity also (34.5 cubic feet). Because of its high clearance, it can land places that aircraft with skids cannot.
