LAD23DER Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 The white thing is a spotlight (that is turned around in the picture). https://www.google.com/search?q=remote+control+spotlight+for+truck&espv=2&biw=1366&bih=647&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAmoVChMIy9jqntuaxwIVBZANCh1iNgrJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred03 Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 That's the only ranger patrol vehicle I've seen with a spotlight like that, in a good number of parks rangers are allowed a certain amount of leeway in customizing their vehicles, I know one ranger that has just 2 grill lights and one little dashlight in his rig (and two lights in his backglass) and other rangers with full exterior light bars and full interior light bars.

Ace612 Posted August 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 @ LAD23DER, Fred03Thanks for the info. I'm probably going to add a spotlight, but will live the bed and winch as it is - after all, I made this unit following the existing Silverado's looks, but not copying it. NPS would be on-map units, so they probably should feel at least a little unique in comparison to the real units.Oh, and also my Silverado has different fog light placement (more centered) and the livery is a bit different.@Bugi007Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace612 Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 The thing in the bed looks like a headache rack to me I believe headache racks are a bit more visible in side/front shots.Although maybe this particular isn't.

Alex Neumeister Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Thanks, I'll definitely consider this.Damn that thing is enormous. Did they just convert an airliner into it?And that is a 737 or 747 to answer the mini-writing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace612 Posted August 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 And that is a 737 or 747 to answer the mini-writingYeah, I'm not much of an aviation expert. Civilian, at least. Airplanes, at least. But doesn't the cargo liners have no passenger windows? This way, it will be a passenger liner convert, which is kind of odd.Also, 737, I believe.

Fred03 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Might wanna just stick with the USFS plain if you don't feel like reskinning it, the USFS would be there and would be deploying air tankers most likely if the fire got that big.

And an NPS Fire/Rescue unit is in late stage of development. Also, I like NPS livery over the USFS one.Oh, and tanker is off-map unit anyway, so it can be considered off-map support, as well as actual USFS ground units.

Corsair Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I actually am a plane expert and you guys were waaaaaaaaaayyyy wrong. Its a DC-10 or an MD 11. 737 only have 2 engines and are much shorter. As you can see, that plane has 3 engines, 2 on the wings and 1 on the rudder/tail. They are used mostly for cargo and the 747 are really big and are built for long flights. They have 4 engines, 2 on each wing. Here are some pictures.https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS8kEgEcjX1_1FIDJ2SJ8y36Ub6nYmxl6QrSE-3cGFUZjLcWwxIHere are some pictures of the MD-11 https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQvg-Q3kEvksgsxWY3Xn42fj0uWQ8O5UXfBo3oPimKcTUouXL6kcAHeres a tanker that a DC-10/MD-11https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTjAHjP6nkQYE0aRwuAD_t5zjN6TJCg_ft6pvLzF5nodQRctuEhlABoth of these planes.

Corsair Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Dont worry, reason why I cant tell which plane it is its because photos to blurry. My guess is that its an MD-11 since the tail engine is covered and the DC-10 isn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
