a better way to get rid of the terrible airport lines would be to reassign all the Officical Gropers to duty stamping out forest fires in Montana

The FEDs won’t allow Montana’s firefighting helicopters to fight fires on Fed land. They are re-worked ex mil copters, but don’t meet Fed standards. (update, just checked, Fed will allow them to be used on SOME Fed land... 5 days ago).

They weren’t allowed last year. Sat on pads, ready to go, were told to ‘stand down’.

Can’t find it, but I believe that some Fed equipment was transferred to other states.
