The former aerial firefighting fleet of Hawkins & Powers, which was forced out of business by two 2002 accidents and the subsequent loss of government contracts. These are some of approximately 50 aircraft which, as of early 2006, were in the hands of a liquidator. The aircraft include PB4Y Privateers, C-119 Flying Boxcars, and other WWII vintage multi-engine bombers and transports.
