Two Erickson Air-Cranes Helicopters, both are S-64F models, N163AC and N178AC, otherwise known as Bubba and Isabelle have probably already left or will soon be leaving Long Beach CA for their journey to Victoria Australia for their summer firefighting season. According to the Erickson Incorporated Aerial Firefighting page of their Website, one of their clients is the National Aerial Firefighting Center in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Specs for the S-64F model can be found on this pdf file of S-64F Technical and Performance Information, that is available from the S-64 link on Erickson's fleet info page.
Thank-you Bubba and Isabella, pilots, and support crew for your upcoming service in Victoria. Stay safe.
