Seen on operations over the Greek island of Zakynthos. This aircraft was destroyed, sadly with the loss of both crew, on the afternoon of 25 July 2023 while fighting a fire on the island of Evia. After dropping a load of water the right wing hit a tree, broke off and the aircraft impacted the hillside.
