Parked on the Hazardous Cargo Pad today was Evergreen's N470EV. This aircraft was modified by Evergreen into the experimental Supertanker to fight wildfires. However, they never received certification to actually use the aircraft to fight wildfires and reconverted back into a normal freight. Evergreen did leave the red tail with the number 947 instead of repainting it back into the normal Evergreen colors.
Hi, this horse was parked up at HNL in the same location mid afternoon 30Aug but gone by first light 31Aug.

SuperTanker programme is very much in progress, they are using different aircraft for certification now.
