Coulson Aviation's CH-47 Chinook was tested at 69 Bravo. Now, Los Angeles, Orange and Ventura Counties will use Chinook helicopters for this coming fire season beginning June 15th. All 3 CH-47 aircraft will be based within 14 minutes flight time to 69 Bravo. As a result, 69 Bravo is in the process of upgrading all 4 Pumpkins from the 6,000-gallon rubber/vinyl Pumpkins to 4 brand new 8,000-gallon Metal Pumpkins to accommodate the aerial firefighting Chinooks.
