Conair DH8D fire-bombers

Conair has agreed a purchase of six new Q400MRs from Bombardier, to supplement two already operated for France’s Securité Civile

Reportedly the French wanted to add more CL-415s but the type-certificate has passed to Viking Air and they aren't producing them at present, just spares for the existing airframes.
