If I made a fire tanker Service VO, would anyone be interested?

That will be a great idea, but i dont think if makes sense , i think we only have one tanker in Infinite Flight
And we cant fight fire in this simulator

But we could use like the 208, and the CRJX as an MD-83. And we could go to where actual fires are, like the palisades RN.
For me dont make sense, we cant see fire and we dont have an animated air tanker

Actually this is a great idea, albeit a very niche & likely small group of pilots interested. I’ve thought about this a little before myself.
Cal-Fire just got some C130s converted to fight fires & also the c130 in IF opens the ramp(to simulate dropping).
Regardless of seeing fires, you can design FPLs to simulate areas to extinguish or boundary to contain the fire. Also you could train and learn the actual procedure(altitude, speed, opening the ramp to drop).
Fun exercise. Just consider whether all the work will be worth the effort for such a niche thing 🫡👍🏻

You have to go to IFVARB to check it out what you need to create a VO
