Great photo of my former girls E. Jones.rn rncn SH3116 = 84-0469 - N173Z now N173ZZrncn SH3109 = 84-0462 - N179Z now N179ZZrnrnThese ladies were with the US Forest Service as Smokejumper aircraft for 29 years (1991-2020). I had the privilege of flying them for 22 of those years, mostly N179Z. They've been really reliable aircraft supporting the Smokejumpers in a low level, high risk mission profile. I'm pleased to see that they will continue to fly and provide reliable service to the freight industry for years to come. Thank you for posting and sharing your photo here. rnrn
