Canadair CL-415 SuperScooper —

Ummm..for some reason, I dont believe this is a Canadair CL-41 Tutor, Claude..more of a Canadair CL-415 water bomber.

Correct code is CL2T.

Je suis aussi d'accord avec rapidwolve et Roy Hunte.

Of course CL2T my mistake...

Whatever the designation, "streamlined" and "sexy" don't apply :)

I have to think in looking at this ungainly bird. Imagining the first successful flight test, several design engineers breathed a sigh akin to 'yes, it DOES fly...!'

Belle photo Claude

Not a CL-415 - this is a converted 215.

Great work horse

Is this the same type as shown in the article about the Croation planes in Isreal?

C-GQBI is listed in the Canadian Aircraft Registry as a CL-215-6B11

a great workhorse, it gets the works done
